MALOLOS, Philippines — Two persons on the drug watchlist in Pulilan town were killed in a sting on Tuesday.

Col. Lawrence Cajipe, Bulacan police director, said Froilan Orillosa and his partner Leah Lucas tried to escape in their white Honda CRV when they sensed they had sold shabu to undercover agents in Barangay Lumbac at around 1:10 p. m.

Cajipe said Orillosa, who left Lucas in their vehicle when she was shot dead, was killed in a running gunbattle.

Police said 15 sachets of shabu, a 9mm pistol, various identification cards, drug paraphernalia and marked money were recovered from the fatalities.

Twenty-one other drug suspects were arrested in anti-narcotics operations in this city, San Jose del Monte, Meycauayan, Sta. Maria, Plaridel, Norzagaray, Baliwag and San Ildefonso, also on Tuesday.
