CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY — Two soldiers from the Philippine Army’s 4th Infantry Division here were ambushed and killed while on their way to the SM Mall in Upper Balulang by unidentified armed men yesterday afternoon.

Col. Francisco Simbajon, military spokesman here, said that 1Lt. Paulman Sadat Tamano and Pfc. Nabral Bara were on their way to the SM Mall in Upper Balulang at about 1:30 p.m. when their Hi-Lux pick-up was stopped by two other vehicles, a red Honda CRV and a red Nissan pick-up.

On board the two red vehicles were armed men who immediately opened fire at Tamano’s pick-up.

The two soldiers were hit in different parts of their bodies causing their instantaneous death. — Lino de la Cruz, Richel Umel
