From the Mindanao Examiner blog site (Nov 20): Army militia shot in Zamboanga town

Suspected communist rebels shot a pro-government militia inside his store in the southern Philippine province of Zamboanga del Sur, police said Wednesday.

Police said four gunmen attacked and wounded the 49-year old Alfredo Montillano Sr. in the village of Maragang in Tigbao town. The attackers, who were believed to be members of the New People’s Army, escaped after the shooting.

Montillano, who is under the 5th Infantry Battalion, was rushed to hospital, but police did not say his condition.

No individual or group claimed responsibility for the attack and the NPA did not say whether it was responsible in the shooting. The NPA has been waging a secessionist war for many decades now.
