No love for Amores

Here we go again.John Amores has escalated his violent tendencies and has spilled over from fisticuffs on-court to armed attempted murder of rival Lee Cacalda off it. All told, this would be the fifth such incident of his brand of vigilante justice in the sport. But this crime takes the cake.

First, he allegedly participated in a game outside of the PBA, a breach of contract if proven. Secondly, he was betting on the said game. Third, he was carrying around a firearm.
