“Drunk”cop challenges superior to a fistfight
A policeman who was accused of firing an M-16 rifle inside a cockpit last year in Tabuelan town is in trouble again after he was allegedly found to be drunk while on duty.
SPO1 Victor Agang is now facing charges for serious neglect of duty, oral defamation and insubordination after he allegedly challenged a superior officer to a fistfight in the Cebu City Police Office guardhouse last Wednesday night.
Senior Insp. Crisanto Duque, in his one-page report to CPPO chief Carmelo Valmoria, said he saw Agang display his .45 cal. pistol “in an arrogant manner” that “created fear and panic to people who went inside the camp”.
“SPO1 Agang was found by the officer of the day to have been under the influence of liquor while on duty,” Duque also said in his report.

So Duque told Agang to calm down, holster his gun and rest. But instead of calming down Agang told him: “Ikaw gud sir, unsa may gusto nimo?”
Duque went inside his office to avoid trouble and end the discussion, but Sanchez, who was stuck in the muddy area of the camp, saw Agang approach him holding his gun. But nothing happened and Sanchez was able to drive out of the camp.

“Buang ka, unsa may imong gusto, dili ko pa liquor test kay mo-konsulta pa ko ako abugado!” Duque quoted Agang as shouting.
After another attempt to disarm him, Agang jumped over the fence at the back the provincial police headquarters.
Agang, whose present whereabouts are unknown, may be facing dismissal if found guilty of the charges against him.
