CAMP SK PENDATUN, Maguindanao -- Investigators are eyeing “rido” or clan war as the possible motive behind the killing of two persons, one of them a minor, and the wounding of three others in a gun attack Wednesday in Matanog town in this province, police here said Thursday.
Capt. Fayeed Cana, spokesperson of the Police Regional Office–Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao, said five persons, two elders and three children, were injured and rushed to a hospital in nearby Parang, Maguindanao.
Cana identified those slain as Bro Lumbos, 43, and a boy, both residents of Barangay Langkong in Matanog.
He said Lumbos and Akmad Makaurao, 38, of Barangay Lalabuan, Balabagan, Lanao del Sur, were loading sacks of corn into a multi-carry vehicle while three children, aged 3 to 5 years old, were playing nearby when attacked on Wednesday.
Unidentified gunmen who positioned on a grassy area not far from the victim’s house opened fire at around 9 a.m., the Matanog police said in its report.
The victims, who are all related, were rushed to a hospital in nearby Parang, Maguindanao, the report added.
“One of possible motive is rido or family feud but we are investigating further,” Cana said in the vernacular. “We are yet to hear from the victims’ families.”
Police found more than 15 empty shells for M16 and Carbine rifles at the crime scene.
