Authorities from the Northern Police District (NPD) arrested three wanted individuals in separate police operations conducted in Valenzuela City and Caloocan City from March 3 to 4, 2026.
The arrests were carried out as part of the police campaign against wanted persons facing serious criminal charges, including robbery and drug-related offenses.
In Valenzuela City, a 43-year-old businessman was apprehended in Barangay Pasolo for robbery with force upon things in an inhabited house or building. Another suspect, a 25-year-old unemployed man, was also served a warrant of arrest for the same offense while he was already detained at the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) Valenzuela City Jail.
Meanwhile, in Caloocan City, police arrested a 33-year-old unemployed man in Barangay 12 who was listed as a Most Wanted Person for violation of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.
NPD Acting District Director PBGen. Christopher R. Dela Cruz commended the operating teams for their dedication and professionalism, emphasizing that the successful implementation of the warrants demonstrates the police force’s commitment to law enforcement and public safety.
The arrested individuals are now under police custody and will face the corresponding legal proceedings in court.
