                    [Summary] => STA. ROSA CITY, Laguna — The city government has allocated a P1-million reward to anyone who could provide information on the killers of former Mayor Leon Arcillas.


The city council approved the cash reward, embodied in a resolution sponsored by councilor Artemio Gomez, to speed up the resolution of the May 10 killing.

Arcillas, although surrounded by his security escorts, was fatally shot by at least three men along the hallway of the second floor of the Sta. Rosa City Hall shortly after he officiated the wedding of 11 couples.

ROSA, Laguna — Police have ruled out politics and are reportedly eyeing a possible love angle in the ambush of this town’s mayor last Sunday night.

Senior Superintendent Edwin Corvera, Laguna police director, said that while all angles are being explored, politics is the least possible motive because Mayor Leon Arcillas has no known "tough" political rivals.

Arcillas, president of the Laguna Mayors’ League, is now serving his second term as mayor of this town since he beat former mayor Tito Gonzalez in 1998.
