TACLOBAN
CITY, March 8 (PNA) –- About 30 members of the New People’s Army (NPA) rebel
group raided the police station of Balangkayan, Eastern Samar Monday night,
carting away several weapons.
All five
policemen on duty were not harmed during the raid that lasted for 30 minutes
around 7 p.m. on Monday, according to Eastern Samar police provincial director
Sr. Supt. Romeo Campomanes.
Campomanes
said in a phone interview that at least 14 assorted firearms were carried away
by rebels after they overrun the police station.
“The police
officers were caught by surprise. They did not attempt to fight back since the
NPAs threatened to shoot them if they would move,” Campomanes told PNA.
Balangkayan
town has 22 police officers; 11 were on duty on Monday, but only five were
inside the police station since others were either conducting patrol or having
dinner.
The rebels
fled towards Balogo village on board a rented van owned by Duptours. The
attackers abandoned the vehicle in the remote San Gabriel village in Maydolong
town.
There is an
ongoing probe on the incident looking into possible lapses on police operation
procedures, according to the provincial police chief.
“We ordered
hot pursuit operations against the NPA rebels behind staging the raid,”
Campomanes added.
