COTABATO CITY, Philippines — Gunmen shot dead a school district supervisor in an attack in Barangay Dawa-Dawa in Alicia, Zamboanga Sibugay on Thursday night, April 30.
The 45-year-old Department of Education employee, Rey Dalaota Camaingking, was walking at an unlit stretch of street in Sitio Guicam in Dawa-Dawa when he was repeatedly shot by gunmen positioned along the route.
Captain Rumulado Puig III, officer-in-charge of the Alicia Municipal Police Station, said on Friday that Camaingking died instantly from bullet wounds sustained in the attack.
Barangay officials and police probers who responded to the incident told reporters that witnesses had seen Camaingking's assailants escape using a getaway Honda XRM 125 motorcycle.
