DAGUPAN CITY –– The Pangasinan provincial police on Monday created a special investigation task group to investigate the killing of a policeman in Sual town.

Reyes, a resident of Anda town, was a member of the special weapons and tactics (SWAT) team of Cordillera regional police.
The gunshot wounds were found in his head and left leg.
