The more I read into this, the more it seems to be one big misunderstanding.

Another thing I learned is I don't think it matters if 12 out of the 13 people killed were saints. It only takes one guy to get all of them killed. All he needs to do is open fire.

Lawmen kill 13 in Quezon shootout
Fatalities were all criminals, say police
By Delfin Mallari Jr.

LUCENA CITY—At least 13 alleged members of a big criminal group from Bicol were killed in a gun battle with policemen and soldiers on Maharlika Highway in Quezon province on Sunday afternoon, according to Army officers.

The officers said the fire fight erupted after two sports utility vehicles carrying the alleged gang members tried to smash through a police-military checkpoint near the boundary of Plaridel and Atimonan towns. The exchange of gunfire supposedly lasted for 18 minutes.

Lt. Col. Monico Abang, commander of the Army’s 1st Special Forces Battalion, said 11 of the alleged gang members died at the scene of the clash, while two others died on the way to the hospital.

A Quezon police official described the fatalities as members of a criminal gang.

Not much information about the gun battle was available Sunday night.

Bayan Muna Rep. Teodoro Casiño monitored the report of the fire fight and linked INQUIRER.net’s breaking story to his tweet. “This is one hell of a shootout,” he tweeted.

In a phone interview, Col. Alex Capiña, commander of the Army’s 201st Infantry Brigade, said that at around 3:30 p.m., the security forces set up a checkpoint in Barangay (village) Tanauan, Atimonan, and tried to flag down two black Mitsubishi Montero Sport vehicles.

But instead of heeding the order, Capiña said, the occupants of the SUVs opened fire on the security forces, prompting the policemen and soldiers to return fire.

The security forces were soldiers from the Army’s First Special Forces Battalion and intelligence officers from the Quezon Provincial Police Office, said Maj. Angelo Guzman, a spokesperson for the 9th Infantry Division based in Pili, Camarines Sur.

Senior Supt. Valeriano de Leon, Quezon police chief, said that no policeman was killed but one of the policemen, Supt. Hanzel Marantan, an official of the Philippine National Police-Southern Tagalog’s Special Operations Group, was hit in the hands and a leg.

De Leon said Marantan was taken to a hospital in Lucena City.

“He is now out of danger,” De Leon said.

De Leon said the Quezon police received information that members of a big criminal syndicate from Bicol would pass by in the area on Sunday.

“It was a solid tip from a government informer,” De Leon said by phone.

Coordination with the military led to the joint police-military checkpoint.

Capiña said traffic on the Maharlika Highway was temporarily diverted to the Bondoc Peninsula Highway, exiting in Gumaca town, because of the incident.

Capiña said eight .45 cal. pistols, one M-16 rifle and one M-14 rifle were recovered from the alleged gang members.

De Leon said the 13 men slain in the fire fight were members of a big-time drug syndicate.

He said, however, that police had yet to determine if the 13 men killed on Sunday belonged to the same drug syndicate three of whose members were killed in Tagkawayan town in Quezon last month.

On Dec. 17, three motorists from Camarines Norte were slain in an ambush carried out by two motorcycle-riding gunmen along the Quirino highway in Tagkawayan, Quezon.

The three men’s car yielded 10 kilos of high-grade “shabu,” or methamphetamine hydrochloride, with an estimated street price of P90 million.

Capiña did not provide other details on the activities of the supposed syndicate, but De Leon said the police would release information after the investigation. With a report from Juan Escandor Jr., Inquirer Southern Luzon and AFP

this incident gets muddy report after report. latest news report now says there were no PNP checkpoint signs at the checkpoint, which may well be the reason why the convoy refuse to stop in the first checkpoint, for fear that they are being flagged by NEPs. But then again they found a suitcase of cash amounting to 200,000. pesos, which makes them doing some illegal activities, intel reports also point to some of the passengers as hired assassins aside from Jueteng ops. No checkpoint signs? sounds like incompetence or rival bookies. several plainclothes personnel in the checkpoint were obviously intel agents, which they are authorized to be in civilian clothes. but the person conducting the stop and talking should be a uniformed personnel and lower ranking not an official, another incompetence. Pnoy was right again for assigning the NBI to be the sole and lead investigator agency in this case so as to prevent biased from PNP officials in cahoots with any irregularities. this becomes interesting everyday to find the truth of the matter.
