MANILA, Philippines - Police arrested three students in a buy-bust operation in Quezon City Tuesday night.

The suspects yielded two bricks of marijuana leaves wrapped in newspaper, according to Quezon City Police District director Senior Superintendent Richard Albano.

Albano identified the three as Michael Levin Molo, 20; Donn Umberto Gabriel, 19; both residents of Quezon City; and Robert Dwight Sison, 19, of Sampaloc, Manila.
