MANILA, Philippines - Two police officials were wounded by motorcycle-riding men who ambushed them in Navotas City Sunday afternoon.
Inspectors Dave Garcia and Elgie Jacobe had picked up some crabs at Police Officer 2 Virgilio Marinduque’s house in Barangay NBBS when the gunmen – who wore helmets and black jackets – shot at them at past 1 p.m., then fled toward C3 Road.
Garcia, 36, who was reportedly hit in the forearm and armpit, managed to bring himself to the Tondo Medical Center. Jacobe, who was hit in the shoulder, was brought to the TMC by concerned citizens.
