He had been driven away twice from Panatag Shoal (Scarborough Shoal), but fisherman Efren Montehermozo Jr. said he would continue to fish in the area. Montehermozo, 20 was one of 80 fishermen in 15 boats from the provinces of Pangasinan, Zambales and Bataan who were chased off the shoal by water cannons fired by a Chinese vessel guarding the area on at least two occasions this month. Montehermozo said a fisherman from Zambales was hurt when he fell off his boat after being hit by the water cannon.
