AVIATION security police have arrested a 28-year-old man allegedly mulcting travelers at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport.
The suspect whose identity was withheld reported tried to flee as elements of the Aviation Security (Avsegroup) closed in on him, picked up a stone when cornered and hit one of the arresting officers in the hand.
Avsegroup said the suspect was spotted illegally soliciting from passengers in the arrival area.
“This incident underscores the ongoing efforts of aviation security personnel and the Aviation Security Group to combat unauthorized activities within airport premises and to ensure the safety and order of all passengers and staff,” said Avsegroup director Brig. Gen. Christopher Abecia.
