Traffic enforcer beaten up in QC

The Philippine Star 05/02/2006

Police arrested yesterday a group of Chinese-Filipinos for beating up a traffic enforcer who was investigating an accident along E. Rodriguez Avenue in Quezon City yesterday.

The face of Sanico Angeles, traffic enforcer of the city’s Department of Public Order and Safety (DPOS), was left swollen when six men ganged up on him at 8:30 a.m.

Responding policemen from the Galas police station and north traffic sector arrested the six suspects identified as Benedict Chan, 25, Jason Andoloy, 26, Stephen Chang, 23, Charles Leir, 30, Stephen Chen, 19, and Pedro Cua, 23.

Initial police investigation revealed that Angeles was talking to drivers involved in a collision between a BMW sedan and a taxi when a group of men alighted from a van and confronted the traffic enforcer. The six men then beat up Angeles.

The driver of the BMW allegedly sought the assistance of the six men, who are his relatives and friends.

At the police station in Kamuning, members of the group attacked a photographer who took shots of the suspects. At least two newsmen and several policemen were hurt in the scuffle.

Police are preparing charges of serious physical injuries, resisting arrest and assault upon persons in authority against the suspects.

A man who introduced himself as the father of one of the suspects appeared at the police station, saying they want to settle the case amicably.

"We are willing to settle with anyone affected by the unfortunate incident. We are very sorry for the actuations of our sons, it was a purely a misunderstanding," he said. – Perseus Echeminada


Sino kaya yung mga mokong na 'to? A bunch of spoiled brats I bet who are used to having their rich parents bail them out whenever they get into trouble!

[badkuk]

calling for help is one thing...why beat up the poor guy? isn't 6 guys enough intimidation already? that's just downright mean.

i better stay away from e.rod the next few weeks. baka magkaroon ng 'shootout' diyan.

[niky]

Yes, let's settle the case amicably... Singaporean style... 20 lashes to their bare backsides.

Assholes.

[GlennSter]

spoiled asses.

[empy]

cowards.

[greenlyt]

we might disagree with the police enforcer pero beating him up.....

[mazdamazda]

Tsk tsk tsk...

I pity the parents of these kids...

[claRkEnt]

gawa ng kalokohan, tapos kuha lang picture para mas sikat sila, nagalit pa!!! that's what they are looking for di ba, FAME?

[Chip]

makahanap din ng katapat yang mga yan..

[the_wildthing]

Tsk tsk tsk...

I pity the parents of these kids...

Ano kaya ang reaction ng parents? Pagalitan sila or i-condone ang kanilang ginagawa?

[wulf]

misunderstanding = for them it means the official refused to look the other way despite intimidation through riches & numbers

prescribed solution of spoiled asses' parents - 'amicable' buyout, because to them, everyone has a price

[ILuvDetailing]

Papagalitan siguro, but I doubt they will change, its hard to teach an old dog new tricks.

[niky]

If those were my kids, I would leave them in jail. That kind of behavior is inexcuseable.

[Mguy]

Sana di ma whitewash ito, to give these kids a proper lesson.

If not, let them burn in hell!!

[Autobeat]

Wow. That's just wrong. Beating up a traffic enforcer while he was investigating an accident? What could be going through the minds of these rich kids while they were doing it (if they were rich kids nga)? "We're rich. You're not. We can beat you up as we choose to, and get away with it."?

kahit ang anak mo ,may sobrang maling ginawa!?

eh pano kung sa anak mo gawin yun?bugbugin ng 6 na tarantadong lalaki?at mas may resources sila kesa sa inyo?

[mikey177]

Yup, don't commit the crime if you can't do the time.

Each citizen has to realize that there are consequences to whatever they do... otherwise, our country will just continue on a downward plunge toward anarchy and the rule of the powerful/influential.
