COTABATO CITY (MindaNews / 12 May) — The barangay chair of Kalanganan Mother, Cotabato City and his companions were ambushed before midnight on Thursday.
Bimbo Ayunan told police he and his companions were passing along Amado Papa Street in Barangay Rosary Heights to fetch a barangay councilman who was watching a basketball game in a neighboring barangay when gunshots rang out.
One of the cars of Ayunan’s convoy was hit but nobody was hurt.
Police and Philippine Marines personnel responded to the incident.
The attackers were able to escape but Ayunan’s companions said they were able to identify them.
