Gunmen Kidnap Man in Philippines
2010-08-17
[Straits Times] PHILIPPINE police say a manhunt is underway for gunmen wearing fatigues who have seized a Filipino businessman in southern Cotabato city.

Chief Inspector Alden Panganiban says at least six gunmen barged into a hardware store owned by Nelson Tay on Monday, disarming security guards and dragging him at gunpoint to a waiting van.

Witnesses say the men were armed with rocket-propelled grenades and assault rifles.

No one has claimed responsibility, and police say they have no suspects.

#1  What should make news is the day that nobody in the Philippines is kidnapped.
