DON VICTORIANO, Misamis Occidental, Philippines – About a hundred New People’s Army rebels raided on Sunday morning the municipal police station here and took away assorted firearms.
Police Officer 1 Madelyn Mag-usara said the rebels overwhelmed the police station’s personnel.
Mag-usara said the rebels, pretending to be Philippine Army soldiers, arrived at around 7 a.m. asking to meet with the station’s officials.
A few minutes later, the rebels declared a raid and disarmed the policemen on duty.
“We were surprised and we did not believe they were NPA rebels,” Mag-usara said.
Before leaving, the rebels also broke some computer units inside the police station.
