COTABATO CITY – Just when Cotabato City Mayor Bruce Matabalao finished the opening of the display of Christmas lights at the plaza here past 7 p.m. Tuesday and was about to speak before the media, gunfires rang nearby, causing spectators to scamper for safety.

Police and other security units sealed off the city plaza, securing the city mayor and key officials. “It was a warning shot, that’s what we learned. But it’s still not right for a civilian to fire his gun. We are looking for the one who did that since no one is admitting yet,” he added.
