Three individuals were arrested after being caught red-handed using illegal drugs under a tree in Bataan on Sunday night.

According to Orion PNP, they received a report from concerned citizens about a pot session taking place in the area.

The location was remote and overgrown, making it difficult to find. Police immediately proceeded to the area, which led to the arrest of the suspects, aged 23, 30, and 39, all residents of the area.

Authorities confiscated lighters, aluminum foil, and 0.08 gram of shabu with a standard drug price of P544.

In a report by RH 37 Danny Cumilang, the 30-year-old suspect admitted that this was his fourth arrest for a drug-related offense.

The arrested suspects were brought to the municipal police station and charged with violating Sections 13, 14, and 15, Article II of Republic Act 9165.
