Troopers from the 9th Infantry Division are now pursuing the
New People's Army (NPA) band that shot dead a tricycle driver in Matnog town,
Sorsogon Monday afternoon.
The incident took place 3 p.m., according to Capt. Mardjorie
Paimela Panesa, 9th Infantry Division spokesperson.
She identified the victim as Dione Pantone, a resident of
Barangay Tabunan, Matnog town.
Panesa said Patone was heading for home aboard his tricycle
(EV-2732) when shot three times by three NPA fighters armed with .45 caliber
pistols.
The victim died on the spot while the rebels, who are
believed to be members of the NPA's Larangan 2, KOMPROB-Sorsogon, immediately
made their getaway.
Recovered from the crime scene were spent .45 caliber
shells. Investigators are still determining the rebel motive for the attack.
