Unknown persons at dawn today reportedly fired rocket-propelled grenades (RPG) at the residence of Lanao del Sur Gov. Mamintal Adiong Jr. along Barangay Pangao Saduc, Marawi City, reports monitored here said.

It cannot be ascertained if the governor was in his house, and no one was reported hurt in the 3:30 a.m. attack, according to Chief Police Supt. Joel Goltiao in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.

The canopy of the governor's house was damaged while another projectile destroyed a nearby bridge, Goltiao said.

Goltiao has deployed additional police forces around the house to deter further attacks as investigation on the case continues.
