Lanao mayor ambushed in Cagayan de Oro, wife killed


CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY – Motorcycle gunmen attacked Wednesday a pickup truck carrying the mayor of Lanao del Sur’s Lumbaca-Unayan town and killed his wife and injured him and their driver in Cagayan de Oro City in southern Philippines, police said.

Police said the gunmen escaped after the shooting that killed Rohaifa Guro, wife of Mayor Somerado Guro. The politician’s nephew, Abdul Guro, was unscathed from the daring broad daylight attack which occurred in the village of Iponan.

Guro’s group came from a house here and was heading home when gunmen, who were tailing them, opened fire on the truck driven by Ibrahim Gani. Despite his wounds, Gani managed to drive to the hospital.

The motive of the ambush is still unknown, but police have launched an investigation into the attack.  (Mindanao Examiner)
