COTABATO CITY – Police arrested an Army corporal, together with a civilian, for the 2005 slay attempt on a radio commentator in Kabacan, North Cotabato last Monday.
Inspector Miraluna Ortega, Kabacan police chief, said the suspects, Army Cpl. Alvaro Obregon and Ronilo Quinoñes, did not resist arrest after sensing that policemen had surrounded their hideout in Barangay Osias, Kabacan town.

Ortega said Obregon and Quiñones were wanted for the near-fatal shooting of Alberto Martinez on April 7, 2005 while he was on his way home to Barangay Osias from his FM radio station in the Kabacan town proper.
