MANILA, Philippines — A young policeman and his pregnant partner were among four suspects arrested in a drug buy bust operation in Caloocan City Wednesday.

Police Officer 1 Michael Narboneta Jr., 26, who said he is assigned to the Directorate for Personnel Records and Management in Camp Crame, was captured as he attempted to flee from his colleagues in Bagong Silang, North Caloocan.

Aside from his partner, also arrested with Narboneta were two alleged couriers.

Seized from Narboneta were 25 sachets of crystal meth or shabu, the marked P500 used in the operation, and his police and other identification cards, Chief Inspector Moner Orang said.

Narboneta reportedly failed a random drug test for police personnel.
