ZAMBOANGA CITY - Motorcycle-riding gunmen killed a public high school principal in an ambush on Wednesday morning in Pagadian City, Zamboanga del Sur.
Superintendent Glenn Dulawan, Pagadian City police chief, identified the victim as Dindo Barsi, principal of the Pagadian National High School in Sitio Gumamela, Barangay Kagawasan, about 7 kilometers from the city proper.
