SAN FELIPE, Zambales: Two gunmen riding a motorcycle fired at the car of Mayor Carolyn Senador Fariñas on Monday morning but missed her or her companions in what appeared to be an ambush attempt, police said.

A report from the town police station said Fariñas was on her way to the municipal hall at 7:30 a.m. when the unidentified assailants opened fire at her Toyota Innova. But the mayor and her companions —John Ray Ramil, a staff officer and driver Raul Rosete—luckily survived the attack along Mendaros Street near the national highway here.
