    "content": "After the assailant exhausted his ammunition, he walked to the Siakago Police Station after having tried to shoot himself and realizing that he had run out of the ammunition. He was disarmed and arrested at the police station at 10.40 p.m. When the first gunshot was heard, the OCPD mobilized all available police officers and immediately blocked all escape routes from Siakago Town with firm instructions that no vehicle, motorcycle or any other person should be allowed to leave the town without thorough check up and identification. The officers took positions in strategic places while others combed the entire town for the assailant. The shooting took only 15 minutes within which period the assailant surrendered to the police. After the officer was arrested, a murder file No.4B2/379210 was opened. The suspect has since been arraigned before a court of law. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, to prevent the recurrence of a similar incident, the Government is taking the following steps: One, officers with signs of mental instability will be identified and retired under medical grounds immediately. Continous guidance and counseling for officers will also be undertaken. Close supervision of officers on duty and monitoring those off duty will also be undertaken. Facilitating officers to take leave and off duty from work will also be done. Assisting those with personal problems where possible and providing recreational facilities for officers working under stressful conditions will also be undertaken. It is not possible to compensate the families of the victims until the criminal case is heard and determined. Even so, compensation can only be done by an order of the court as the law requires. However, the Government met all the burial expenses for the 10 victims."
