ZAMBOANGA CITY — Three teachers narrowly escaped an abduction attempt by five armed men in Barangay (village) Limaong here, the military reported Friday.
Lieutenant Colonel Randolph Cabangbang, spokesman of the Western Mindanao Command, said Riza dela Cruz, Lee Mariano and Lerna Cabilis were inside their classrooms at the Limaong Elementary School at Sitio (sub-village) Tige when the armed men arrived and attempted to snatch them.
Members of the local militia, who were alerted by some witnesses, responded and drove the suspects away after firing warning shots, he said.
