Family of 3 arrested for beating 2 workers

Juan Vanguardia, 37, told police he was able to escape from the house of Ethan Besas, 49. He was accompanied by one of the security guards of Tahanan Village when he filed a complaint, according to a spot report from the Southern Police District (SPD).

“I was hit on the head with a hammer. I still have lumps on the back of my head. I was beaten with a belt and they wanted to cut off my tongue so I would not be able to talk,” Vanguardia said in Filipino, according to a News5 report.
