00:00A man in Quezon City has been arrested for possession of shabu and gunpowder.
00:10The suspect admitted that the gunpowder was not shabu, but a medicine for his leg.
00:18Here's James Agustin.
00:22Here are the troops. Just sit down.
00:32Sir, are you sure?
00:35Yes, sir. Put a gun outside so that they won't move.
00:38This is a negotiation between the barangay and the police on a man who was the subject of a drug by bus operation in Barangay Commonwealth, Quezon City.
00:46Shortly after, a man threw a gun at him and took it out of the window of his house.
00:52He was followed by another man and he was arrested by the police.
00:57The police caught the video after the man possessed shabu.
01:03When the operatives identified the man, the 57-year-old man told the suspect.
01:09When we said that he threw the gun, he didn't throw it because his house was locked.
01:15When he threw the gun, we didn't make sure that he opened the door because according to our asset, he had a gun.
01:28Aside from the gun, the suspect also took 25 grams of shabu, which is worth P170,000.
01:36According to the police, the suspect is operating in Barangay Commonwealth.
01:40We have been targeting him for a long time. We have been studying him for almost two months.
01:44It's hard for him to enter his house because his transaction is only within his window.
01:49Before he can give drugs, we will text him first.
01:54According to the QCPD, the gun was not licensed and was obtained from the suspect.
01:59It was submitted to the crime lab for a ballistic examination.
02:03This is the third time that the suspect has been jailed after he was caught because of a drug-related case.
02:09I don't sell drugs.
02:11Did you take drugs?
02:13It's for fun.
02:15It's for fun?
02:16I use it to treat my feet.
02:18Is the gun yours?
02:19Yes.
02:20Is it for shabu?
02:21It's for self-defense.
02:24Why did you take it?
02:25It's just for fun.
02:28According to the police, the gun was not licensed and was obtained from the suspect based on a crime lab investigation.
02:34The suspect is facing charges of violation of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act and Comprehensive Firearms and Ammunition Regulation Act.
