CITY OF SAN FERNANDO – The Police Regional Office-3 has deployed 2,000 cops on night patrols to undertake intelligence-led and target-specific operations to strengthen security, prevent crime, and ensure high police presence in critical and vulnerable areas in Central Luzon.
“Ang mga pinalakas na operasyong ito ay direktang tugon sa panawagan ng Pangulong Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. para sa mas ligtas na lipunan. Tinututukan natin ang mga lugar na mataas ang banta sa seguridad, at ginagamit ang lahat ng ating kapasidad upang mapanatiling ligtas ang ating mga komunidad. Ang kaligtasan ng publiko ay ating pangunahing responsibilidad,” noted PRO-3 director ani BGen Jean S. Fajardo.
Composed of maneuver forces from the police provincial offices and the regional mobile force battalion, the 2,000 night patrollers were deployed starting May 28 to urban centers, provincial capitals, commercial districts, transport terminals, and other populated areas in the region.
“Ang mga nightwatch patrol teams ay nakatuon sa pagbibigay ng seguridad sa mga manlalakbay, motorista, at mga mamamayang nasa lansangan tuwing gabi. Layunin nitong maiwasan ang kriminalidad, mapanatili ang kaayusan, at mabilis na makaresponde sa anumang banta sa seguridad,” Fajardo said, adding that PRO-3 utilizes updated crime mapping, time-based incident analysis, and predictive policing tools to more effectively implement their anti-criminality strategies.
Fajardo assured the public that the police are on alert, day and night, to protect the lives, property, and tranquility of every citizen in Central Luzon. Punto News Team/PRO-3
