It pays not to meddle

Two alleged drug personalities and two meddling men were arrested in Barangay Concepcion in Marikina City early Friday morning.

Falling in a buy-bust operation were suspected pusher Jerome Baldo, 19; and 60-year-old Alfred Pagdirigan, who scored shabu side-by-side with the poseur-buyer policeman.

Also arrested for serious disobedience were Roberto and Randel Gonzales, 37, and 34, respectively, after they interfered with the arrest of Baldo and Pagdirigan and the inventory being done by policemen of the confiscated shabu.

Seized from Baldo and Pagdirigan were six sachets of suspected shabu weighing about eight grams with a street value of more or less P50,000.
