CAMP SERVILLANO AQUINO, Tarlac City (DWDD) – Several grenades were recovered and subsequently turned-over to an Army Detachment in Norzagaray, Bulacan at 9:00 in the morning of February 23, 2018.

 

Based on the report of the Joint Task Force (JTF) “KAUGNAY” of the 7th Infantry Division (7ID), a certain Rene B. Alcaraz surrendered twenty one (21) fragmentary grenades and one (1) smoke grenade to the Commander of Suha Patrol Base under the 70th Infantry Battalion (70IB), Philippine Army. Alcaraz, a 59 year old resident of Sitio Suha, Brgy. San Mateo, Norzagaray, Bulacan, is also the father of CAFGU Active Auxillary (CAA) Rey Alcaraz assigned in the same area.
