“They were wearing caps and jackets, and asked the employees and the guard to go to the Acacia Tree which is located at the far left at the front side of the terminal,” Ramilo said. On this moment, two of the suspects get the service firearm (.38) of the on duty Security Guard Alexander Ranola at gunpoint. The guard told the police that the two men who cornered him have 9mm.
They even said, “Matagalna kaming galit sa Victory Liner dahil hindi binibigay ang gusto naming.” (We are mad at Victory Liner because they are not giving the demands that we are asking for.)

The busses that were burned were parked in middle portion of the terminal. The bus with body number 1567 were totally burned. The other two busses with body numbers 2123 and 807 were slightly burned.
Ramilo said they are have different angles on who did the incident, “First, it can be insurgent group, second, it could be competitors; and third, it can be the former employees who were not satisfied with the management of the Victory Liner.”
After pouring thinner and firing the busses, the suspects immediately fled onboard Tamaraw XLT with no plate.
