                    [Summary] => TACLOBAN CITY — Three employees of an electric cooperative were killed, while three others survived when communist rebels ambushed them in a remote barangay in Catbalogan, Samar yesterday afternoon.


Maj. Gen. Bonifacio Ramos, commander of the Army’s 8th Infantry Division based in Catbalogan, confirmed the deaths of the three civilians and the wounding of three others, all employees of the Samar 11 Electric Cooperative (Samar 11) based in Paranas town.

Ramos said the New People’s Army (NPA) guerrillas apparently mistook the victims for Army soldiers.
