Cops stop illegal cockfight

FIGHTING cocks will rest for a while because police officers stopped illegal cockfighting activities at Wright Park.

According to the Baguio City Police Office Crime Incidence Report, officers confiscated three live fighting cocks and a pair of dead ones in an operation conducted around 2:40 p.m. last January 22.

However, police were not able to arrest any of the gamblers as they managed to escape when they saw the policemen coming.

Police also arrested suspects Elsie Malubay Ana and Reynaldo Acosta for qualified theft.

The suspects were caught inside Joy Shoemaker along General Luna Road at 12:30 p.m. on January 22.

Likewise Spouses Modesto and Angelina Bartolome were also arrested at the same day at 9:30 a.m.

The couple was arrested because of a case of estafa filed against them.

They were surrendered to the court, which issued the warrant for their arrest. (Visha Calventas)
