CITY OF SAN FERNANDO — A 24-year-old gang leader, reputed to be the most wanted person in Metro Manila, was arrested last Saturday in joint police operations in Tarlac City.
The Camp Olivas police based here identified the suspect as Art Cris Viloria, 24, of Barangay Tumana, Marikina City.
He was nabbed in Barangay San Vicente, Tarlac City at around 11:40 a.m.
A report from the camp said the National Capital Region police said Viloria headed a group named after himself that was responsible for a series of robbery hold-up incidents and proliferation of illegal drugs in Marikina.
Viloria was also tagged in an armed encounter with police when he stole a motorcycle somewhere along Marcos Highway last Aug. 21.
Viloria has three arrest warrants for the violation of Republic Act 9165 or the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002, Usurpation of Authority, and robbery with violence and intimidation.
Viloria was arrested by joint operatives of Marikina City Police Station Special Operations Unit, Regional Intelligence Unit and Tarlac City Police.
The report said cops are still hunting down the other members of Viloria’s group.
