MANILA, Philippines — Three drug suspects were killed in alleged shootouts with police officers in Cavite on Monday.

Reynier San Agustin, Rolando Docog and Ariel Vanta allegedly drew their guns when they sensed they had sold shabu to undercover agents in Barangay Malagasang 1G, Imus; Muzon, Rosario, and 4A, Cavite City, respectively.

Police said Agustin was a ”high-value” drug suspect. Vanta was arrested on drug charges and released last October.
