No charges yet

Only last week, the wounded man obtained bail and was released from prison in connection with the crime against the Mayo businessman. The suspect had an unlicensed firearm and ammunition in his possession when he was arrested. He is expected to be charged with a number of gun-related charges.

The drama, which began in Mayo, ended just around 11.25 am on Monday at the front gate of the Gasparillo home of retired Assistant Commissioner of Police Cecil Santana, with the bleeding victim stumbling out of his silver Lancer begging for help. Chasing him was the shooter, who was also held, in front of Santana’s gate. PC Castillo of the Gasparillo police is investigating.
