POLICE arrested a mother and his son in a buy-bust operation yesterday in Barangay Pulpogan, Consolacion town in northern Cebu.
SPO2 Francisco Perez Jr. of Consolacion police station said that they arrested Jocelyn Alivio ,47, of Barangay Pulpogan, and his son, Christopher Alivio, 24, allegedly handed over a sachet of suspected shabu to an undercover police officer.
Perez said Rudy Capangpangan, 47, Alivio’s live-in partner and the father of Christopher, however, escaped when he sensed the police officers closing in on them.
Six sachets of suspected shabu, buy-bust money and drug paraphernalia were confiscated from the suspects, who were detained at the Consolacion police station pending the filing of charges.
