TOURIST TO SUE DOG OWNER. A Caucasian tourist, 50, made quite a scene in one section of Boracay recently. Naked all over, he was seen running after a dog who ran off with his swimming shorts. Failing to catch the dog and realizing he was naked, the man grabbed a banana leaf (palm?) from a lechon stall to cover his front with it.

DOG OWNER. The tourist went to a tanod station to have the matter blottered. He was filing a case against the dog owner nobody in the place knew. Later he was heard threatening to sue the persons who took pictures of him running naked after the dog. One of them is our source, a Cebuano souvenir trader in Boracay.
