PNP troops sent to Pampanga town after killings

ARAYAT, Pampanga, Philippines—The Pampanga police on Friday sent at least 30 members of its provincial mobile group to this town to help maintain order here on the heels of three shooting incidents that killed two men and wounded another.

Pampanga police officials also asked the regional mobile group to send at least 30 men for the same reason, an Inquirer source in the Arayat police said.

The source, who asked not to be identified by name due to lack of authority to speak on the matter, said the police were intervening early to prevent more bloodshed because the three incidents appeared to be a start of a vendetta.

On June 17, two men on board a motorcycle shot dead Rodel Dauz, also known as Ka Rigor, in Barangay Tabuan.

Dauz, a resident of Nueva Ecija, was a former member of the Hukbong Mapagpalaya ng Bayan (HMB), the armed group of the old Communist Party of the Philippines.

On June 18, two men on a motorcycle shot and killed Jeffrey Guinto in Barangay Camba. Guinto, 24, was reportedly close to former HMB commander Von Alejandrino.

Also on the same day, in Barangay Mesulo, Jesus Garcia, Alejandrino’s cousin, survived an attack by motorcycle-riding gunmen.


The police source declined to name those behind the supposed vendetta.

Policemen patrolled the villages of Tabuan, Camba, Mesulo and the Arayat town proper, said the source.

In the May 10 elections, the police maintained more than 10 checkpoints in Arayat to enforce the gun ban and prevent the outbreak of violence in the town.
