A jail officer was arrested by members of the Parañaque City Police for illegal possession of firearm, grave threat, and trespass to dwelling on Sunday, September 1.

The Southern Police District (SPD) said the suspect was identified as "Ruben," 36. He was arrested at around 2:40 a.m. in Barangay Don Bosco, Parañaque City.

The SPD said the victim was with his friends inside the compound for a gathering when Ruben suddenly entered his house and drew a firearm at them.

The group managed to disarm the suspect and was able to get hold of his .45 caliber pistol with five live ammunition.

They then called for police assistance from the Parañaque Police Don Bosco Substation leading to the suspect's arrest.
