ANTHONY ALONZO AS VICTOR MEDINA, THE "HUK HUNTER" (1981)

In Huk Hunter (1981), actor Anthony Alonzo played the role of Victor Medina, police chief of Mabalacat, Pampanga. From 1946 to 1950, Medina was responsible for getting rid of Huk insurgents who had been sowing terrors in the countryside. Tagged as "Sergeant York of the Philippines," Medina died in the line of duty.



No other details on the life of Victor Medina can be found in the internet except with this piece of disturbing news item that saw print in the front page of The Strait Times dated July 6, 1947. Fourteen minors ranging from 13 to 18 years old suspected of being Hukbalahaps were killed by Medina and his men.
