ILOILO City – A man who claimed to be a bodyguard of a mayor in Antique province was arrested in Brgy. San Isidro, Jaro district for illegal possession of firearm and illegal drugs.

The 39-year-old Michael Gustilo of Brgy. Gustilo, La Paz district yielded a .45 pistol with ammunition, a sachet of marijuana and a sachet of shabu.

Gustilo had an expired gun license and had no permit to carry a firearm.
