Officer of Malabon cop who killed 2 probed


Philippine National Police chief Gen. Benjamin Acorda Jr. said Thursday that the commanding officer of the policeman who shot and killed two people and seriously wounded another in Malabon City Wednesday night could be charged.
In an interview, Acorda said that the head of the National Capital Region Police Office, P/Brig. Gen. Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., had already briefed him about the incident. He said that investigations are ongoing and that there are witnesses to the crime, as well as forensic evidence.
However, Acorda said he does not want to jump to the conclusion that the commanding officer is responsible until the probe is complete and it is determined whether the case is related to operations conducted by the suspect police officer.
Earlier, the Malabon City Police Station arrested the suspect, Patrolman Zenjo del Rosario, who was implicated in the shooting incident in Barangay Acacia, Malabon City, at about 4:30 a.m. Wednesday.
Investigations revealed that Del Rosario entered the house of the victim, Alexis Guitierez, and fired multiple shots. Three people were wounded.
