Policeman jailed for keeping gun/ammo without license…
In Benque, however, the cops have detained two adults and a minor pending firearms charges. Around four Monday afternoon police responded to reports of shots being fired in the Water Pump area. In an unfinished cement house at the corner of Church and B streets, cops spotted three males, who upon noticing the authorities are said to have thrown an object through the window. That object turned out to be a piece of iron formed to look like a gun and held together with electrical tape. Police report that not only was smoke coming from its barrel, but inside a bag they found thirty-three pellets and three igniters. The cops promptly took twenty-one year old Julio Portillo, twenty-three year old Marlon Jimenez, and a fifteen year old into custody.
