LEGAZPI CITY – A suspected drug pusher was killed while four other suspects were arrested in separate operations in Camarines Sur on Saturday. This prompted the police officers to return fire that resulted in the suspect’s death. Police recovered four bags of shabu (crystal meth), drug-using items, a .38 caliber gun, a fired cartridge, and three other cartridges. In a separate buy-bust operation, Ricky Vasquez, 34, was also arrested in Barangay Hamoraon in Minalabac town at around 4:20 p.m. Confiscated from him were four sachets of shabu. Authorities seized six sachets of shabu, a weighing scale, aluminum foil and other drug-using tools from the establishment owned by Gecosa.
