ILOCOS NORTE — The Philippine National Police addressed a viral video showing a group of men fighting after the Panagyaman Concert in Laoag City, Ilocos Norte on Saturday night, 23 September, at 10:00 p.m., during a press conference on Sunday. Unfortunately, the video is no longer available from the original source. Laoag City PNP chief, Police Lt. Col. Joseph Baltazar identified those involved in the viral fist fight as Julio Tristan Agustin Garma, 24, and Hugh Grant Agustin Garma, 23, against Keith Donves Vicente Albayalde, 19; Billy Juan Tating, 20; and two John Does. According to the police report, Hugh and his girlfriend were walking when the group of Billy, who was walking behind them, allegedly pushed Hugh and his girlfriend while shouting “BBM” and then walked past them as if nothing happened. Hugh reacted when suddenly "someone" from the group of Billy allegedly punched Hugh that subsequently started the riot. Nonetheless, regardless if both parties have already settled, the PNP will still file an alarm and scandal charge or violation of Article 155 of the Revised Penal Code against those involved in the incident. The Laoag police chief also disclosed that one of those involved is currently under probation. He said the PNP will request for the revocation of probation. Meanwhile, also in the same press conference, the police chief further disclosed that an order of revocation by the Firearms and Explosives Office in Camp Crame was issued against two individuals in the city. The individuals were identified as Albino Pedro, a former city government employee, and Ferdinand Macugay. According to Baltazar, Pedro is currently facing a criminal charge which is one of the grounds of the revocation. Five of his firearms are now in the safekeeping of the Laoag City Police Station. In the case of Macugay, his License to Own and Possess Firearm (LTOPF) will expire on 22 October 2023. The subject firearm is temporarily held under custody for safekeeping.
