LUCENA CITY – A notorious drug pusher was arrested in a buy-bust operation here early Thursday, police said in a report.
A drug enforcement unit collared Ronald Tolentino, 30, after he sold a sachet of shabu (crystal meth) to an undercover policeman in an operation in Barangay (village) Market View around 5 a.m., Supt. Romulo Albacea, Lucena police chief, said.
