Police nab gang member for murder
A Crips gang member, who has been wanted for murder, was arrested by the Pardo police in his house at sitio Kawayan in barangay Bulacao Saturday night.
The suspect was identified as 21-year-old Raymund Abellanosa, resident of the barangay, who was found also allegedly in possession of a .38 caliber revolver loaded with six live bullets.
Policemen confiscated the gun, which has no documents, and set the filing today of charges for illegal possession of firearms against Abellanosa.
Pardo station chief, Sr. Insp. Aureo Sanchez, led the arresting team that carried a warrant issued by Regional Trial Court-branch 18 Judge Enriquita Belarmino.

Policemen have also checked homicide records about Abellanosa’s alleged involvement in the shooting of a certain “Api” in sitio
