ANGELES CITY, Philippines — For allegedly threatening to kill his brother-in-law, actor Baron Geisler was arrested in this city on Monday.
Michael Robin Stone Morales sought police assistance, saying Geisler went amuck and threatened to kill him with a kitchen knife.
Geisler was arrested at around 3:30 p.m. in front of Morales’ house in Barangay Pulung Maragul, Superintendent Fe Grenas, Central Luzon police spokesperson, said.
The actor, who was reportedly drunk during the incident, is being held at the Angeles City police Station 3. He was charged with grave threat, alarm and scandal as well as illegal possession of a deadly weapon.
On Saturday, Geisler posted a photo on Instagram showing bruises on his face, claiming he was beaten up by his family members.
Geisler was arrested last October after he caused a scene at a bar in Quezon City. – Emmanuel Tupas, Ramon Efren Lazaro
