A high-value drug target was arrested Monday afternoon by EB Magalona Municipal Police Station anti-drug operatives in the town’s Barangay Alicante.

Police identified the arrested as 43-year-old Rodel Flores, a resident of the said barangay.

EB Magalona municipal police said Flores previously surrendered under ‘Oplan: Tokhang,’ but he reportedly continued his engagement in illegal drug activities.

Flores was arrested after he handed one sachet of suspected shabu to an undercover cop in exchange for P500.

A subsequent search also yielded two additional plastic sachets of suspected shabu.

Cops valued the seized illicit substances at P3,500.

Flores faces drug-related charges and is detained at the EB Magalona Municipal Police Station./DGB, WDJ
