Cop accused of indiscriminate firing

-

CEBU - A policeman is now under investigation for allegedly firing his M16 rifle while he was drunk last Monday afternoon in barangay Camputhaw, Cebu City.

PO3 Altelano Ferolino, assigned to the Cebu City Police Office but detailed with the Cebu City Bantay Dagat Commission, is now detained at the Fuente Police Station after he was arrested by elements of the Mobile Patrol Group and some barangay residents.

Neighbors claimed he fired his rifle after he got drunk around 5 p.m.

Cebu City police director Sr. Supt. Patrocinio Comendador said that if the Internal Affairs Service finds Ferolino guilty, he will face the maximum penalty of being discharged from service because indiscriminate firing is a grave offense in the PNP.

Ferolino, however, said he is ready to face the administrative case to be filed against him. — Niña Chrismae G. Sumacot/BRP  (THE FREEMAN)
