A 52-year-old Kabankalan City resident was gunned down by suspected members of the Revolutionary Proletarian Army-Alex Bongcayao Brigade (RPA-ABB) at Sitio Abtao, Barangay Tapi of the said city, Wednesday.
Police identified the fatality as Larry Canelon, a resident of Barangay 1.
Kabankalan City police chief, Police Superintendent Rhea Santos, said the victim was walking with a friend, whom she refused to identify, when six gunmen appeared and shot Canelon, killing him on the spot.
Canelon’s friend, meanwhile, was able to wrestle one of the gunmen and took his firearm before the suspect overpowered him and fled.
Santos said the victim’s friend identified two of the six suspects, but refused to divulge their identities as investigation is ongoing.
She stressed, however, they are looking into a land conflict or personal grudge as the possible motive./WDJ
