A suspected street-level drug pusher was arrested by members of Kabankalan City police following a buy-bust operation at Purok Sampaguita, Barangay Binicuil, Kabankalan City, Tuesday night.
Police identified the suspect as 39-year-old Luis Sansano, a resident of Purok Masinadyahon in the said barangay.
In an e-mail sent by Kabankalan City police chief, Police Superintendent Rhea Santos, she said they were suspicious of Sansano, as he was always spotted in the same waiting shed being patrolled by police.
Cops soon figured out Sansano was reportedly selling illegal drugs, so a buy-bust operation was organized.
The suspect was arrested after handing one sachet of suspected shabu in exchange for P300.
A search further yielded seven sachets of suspected shabu, the P300 buy-bust money, and suspected drug proceeds amounting to P840.
Sansano is facing illegal drugs charges and is detained at the Kabankalan City Police Station./WDJ
