A FORMER policeman was shot and wounded by a still unidentified man in Toledo City, midwest Cebu early morning yesterday.
Rogelio Gutang, 30, was relieving himself outside his house in barangay Bitoon when he was shot in the right leg by someone hiding behind a banana tree.
Relatives rushed to Gutang’s aid and brought him to the hospital.
Supt. Ali Baron, chief of the Toledo City Police Station, said the motive of the attack is still under investigation.
Gutang told investigators he could not think of anyone who could be responsible for the attack. He said he had no known enemy in their place.
Supt. Baron said Gutang had a rank of police officer 1 when he was dismissed from service in 2014.
Supt. Baron said it was his predecessor, Supt. Ricky Delilis, who filed administrative charges against Gutang for absence without official leave.
The administrative charges led to Gutlang’s dismissal from police service.
