9 Injured in Cubao Grenade Attack
« on: February 28, 2009, 05:45:04 AM »
MANILA, Philippines—(UPDATE 3) Nine people, including a 13-year-old boy, were injured when two motorcycle-riding men lobbed a hand grenade at a group of bystanders in Cubao, Quezon City Friday evening, police said.

Cubao station commander Superintendent Edgardo Pamittan said the nine, mostly college students, were walking along Ermin Garcia St. in front of Sunrise Suites Hotel in the village of Silangan when the two unidentified men hurled the grenade at them at around 8:10 p.m.

Pamittan said the nine suffered minor injuries, mostly shrapnel wounds, and were brought to the Quirino Memorial Medical Center for treatment.

He identified them as Kurt Enrico Deleste, 13; Reyhel Santos, 24; Jerry Morta, 23; Monbhien dela Cruz, 21; Kimpee Alecosia, 20; Rexton Vitto, 17; James Albert, 19; Junell Obenario, 23; and Dave Santalices, 20.

The victims were not residents of the area, Pamittan said, adding that police were looking into the possibility the incident was caused by a fraternity or gang war in the area.

The hand grenade was turned over to the Explosives and Ordnance Division at Camp Caringal for proper disposition, he said.

The house near the site of the explosion suffered minor damages, Pamittan added.
