HERE is a lesson to motorists with loud mufflers or horn: Not everyone is pleased or happy about it.
This was proven by a 39-year-old who went amuck and punched a motorist at Divisoria in Manila.
According to the investigation of the Moriones Police, the suspect got irritated over the loud horns coming from the different vehicles.
He was onboard a public utility jeepney when it happened.
“Ang suspek po natin ay naingayan po sa busina ng motorsiklo tsaka ng mga jeep. Doon po siya nagsimula na makipag-away po siya sa motorista,” Police Lieutenant Colonel Alvin Christopher Baybayan, Station Commander of the Moriones Police said.
A video of the incident was recorded wherein the suspect and the motorists were shouting at each other that eventually led to a fist fight.
The police were conducting an ‘Oplan Sita’ and immediate responded to the incident.
“Ang sabi niya ay mayroon daw pong nagpakilalang pulis na sinusugod sila o sinusuntok sila. Hindi po nagpapigil ‘yung suspek natin kahit pong nagpakilala na pong pulis ‘yun atin pong tauhan. Patuloy po niyang sinusugod ‘yung isang motorista,” PLtCol. Baybayan said.
The PNP said the suspect tried to get hold of the service firearm of one of their personnel. Even one of their personnel was punched.
“Habang siya po ay pinoposasan, doon naman niya sinuntok sa mukha ‘yung pulis natin, at ‘yun naman po ang dahilan kung bakit pinagtanggol ng atin pong pulis ang kanyang sarili at eventually po naaresto ang suspek,” PLtCol. Baybayan said.
The suspect claimed that he was having family problems.
“Para naman po siya sir g@g# gawa ng ‘yung nauuna sa kaniya ‘yung sinasakyan kong jeep, ay busina po ng busina. Hindi ba po kung matino ang pagkatao mo diba dapat hindi mo bubusinahan. Sabi ko kung gusto mo magmadali, lagyan mo ng pakpak at paliparin mo,” the suspect said.
He also clarified that he did not try to get the police’s service firearm.
“Hindi po talaga. Kasi kung inagaw ko po ‘yun, agaw talaga. Kunyari lang po sir para maging alerto siya na sa kaniya ako,” the suspect added.
