CEBU City – The Police Regional Office 7 (PRO-7) reported no untoward incident during the observance of the All Saints’ and All Souls’ days, except for the arrest of a notorious holdupper and confiscation of some prohibited items from visitors in different cemeteries.
PRO-7 director Jose Mario Espino said the observance of Undas in Central Visayas had been generally peaceful since Tuesday.
Espino, who went to inspect all the cemeteries in the city on Wednesday, also said the PRO-7 has not received any threat to the security in the region.
“It’s generally rather peaceful, but we will continue to tighten our security,” Espino said.
Meanwhile, the alleged notorious holdup suspect fell into the hands of covert operatives inside the Carreta Cemetery on Wednesday.
Juniyo “Dongkoy” Fernandez, 25, of Barangay Hipodromo was arrested after cemetery-goers reported the presence of a man carrying a loaded handgun.
The arresting team, led by Senior Inspector Jovito Labra of the Cebu Waterfront Police, recovered from Fernandez’s possession a .38-caliber revolver with ammunition.
Fernandez was detained at the Mabolo police station lockup facility pending the filing of charges against him. (PNA/PN)
