Cotabato Police Chief Survives Gunshot In His Chest After Attack by Riding-in-Tandem
The police chief of the Philippine National Police (PNP) Cotabato City is thankful after he luckily survives the gunshot in his chest.
The responding personnel of Police Station No. 1 struggled with the alleged suspects in the city’s unsuccessful shooting incident. According to the report, the Police were led by their chief, Major John Vincent Figuroa Bravo.
A driver was shot in the area of Purok Torion, Barangay Poblacion 1, Cotabato City, prior to the incident. The victim was identified as Nurodin Manguindra Manarasal, 56 years old, married, and a resident of Labangan, Zamboanga Del Sur.
According to the interview, the victim and his family were in a Nissan Navara pick-up from Zamboanga del Sur and were headed to the city for a family reunion. The suspects opened fire on them as they approached Salamat Street.
They were, however, fortunate that the suspects’ guns did not fire. The event was promptly reported to PS1 by a concerned resident. The police responded quickly to the location of the event, commanded by PMAJ BRAVO, and initiated a vigorous pursuit operation against the two gunmen.
Even before they went down, the two suspects began shooting at them, exchanging gunfire and chasing each other. Major Bravo was lucky to be saved during the first volley of gunfire when the crooks’ bullets struck his bulletproof vest.
Maj. verified that the two suspects escaped. Based on the blood trails at the scene, they must have received many bullet wounds. Meanwhile, City Councilor Abdillah Lim complimented the citizens of his ward for swiftly relaying information to the City PNP, which resulted in a prompt response. The suspects are also not from their barangay.
