A 40-year-old man was arrested by the Bulacan police and the Regional Mobile Force Battalion 3 (RMFB3) while wandering around the premises of a businessman in Barangay Tukod, San Rafael, Bulacan, on Saturday, November 2. He was found in possession of a firearm and a grenade.
Lt. Col. Eulogio M. Lamqui III, the acting police chief of San Rafael, identified the arrested suspect as Lloyd Rodriguez Madulid, a resident of Barangay Agnaya, Plaridel, Bulacan.
According to the police report, San Rafael policemen received a telephone call from Councilor Erwin Calderon, reporting that an unidentified man had entered the compound premises of Jonito Racal without permission while on board a blue Honda Click motorcycle without a plate number.
San Rafael municipal police immediately responded to the location to verify the veracity of the report.
The RMFB3, which was conducting Oplan Sita near the area at that time, also proceeded to the scene of the incident.
Authorities recovered one caliber .38 revolver without a trademark, bearing serial No. 57718, with six bullets from Madulid.
A hand grenade was also found, and the Bulacan Explosive and Ordnance Division (EOD) immediately requested to retrieve the explosive device.
In a sworn statement provided by Madulid on Monday, November 4, he stated that he was allegedly ordered by a well-known person to watch the actions and activities of the Racal family.
Police said charges for violations of RA 10591, RA 9516, and Trespass to Dwelling will be filed against the suspect.
