MANILA, Philippines -- A Philippine action film star said he killed two armed men who robbed his house and allegedly tried to rape two of his daughters Thursday.

Sonny Parsons, 44, said six men armed with pistols barged into his house in suburban Marikina city early Thursday as his maid opened the gate. The intruders then tied everyone up.

"One of them poked a gun to my head but it did not go off," Parsons said in radio and television interviews aired across the Philippines.

Parson also was a member of the singing group Hagibis, patterned after the Village People.

Ok, so this is the Phillipine version of Arnold Schwarzenegger who also sings with a village people knockoff group? Talk about weird!

I hear a lot about action stars in India getting into real life gun fights too (because of organized crime's involvement with the film industry over there.)

Hmm. Wanna bet he make a movie about this incident?

"One of them poked a gun to my head but it did not go off,"

Apparently he was very inexperienced gunman.

"Hey, what's this little lever like thing in this loop?"

Maybe this guy should take over for Steven Seagal's future roles...
