Roel Pareño - The Philippine Star

Zamboanga City, Philippines — Four detainees escaped from a police station detention cell in this city on Saturday night.

The fugitives were identified as Ronnel Napalcruz, Raymond Fernandez, Rogen Ocampo and Paul Damasain.

Except for Damasain, the rest were detained on drug charges.

Taking advantage of the heavy downpour, the detainees reportedly sawed off the iron bars of the city police station 8 in Barangay Sinunuc and escaped at around 8 p.m., according to Col. Alexander Lorenzo, Zamboanga City police chief.

A manhunt was launched for the fugitives.
