PHILIPPINE National Police Chief Archie Gamboa on Thursday, April 23, defended the policeman who shot and killed a former soldier, saying he was just following instructions on what to do when confronted by an armed suspect.
Police Master Sergeant Daniel Florendo Jr. shot and killed Ragos, who allegedly had a gun inside his sling bag, at around 2:30 p.m. Wednesday at a quarantine checkpoint in Maligaya Drive, Barangay Pasong Putik in Quezon City. PNP spokesperson Brigadier General Bernard Banac said there was no need to fire warning shots because Florendo had given Ragos several verbal warnings.
A report from the Quezon City Police District said police recovered a caliber 38 revolver loaded with ammunition from Ragos’ sling bag.
