Police: Zero crime rate in San Luis

SAN LUIS — The chief of police here said Wednesday that the town has a zero crime rate for the past two years.
Police Chief Inspector David Arcega, town’s chief of police, said there is no carnapping, shooting, riding in tandem incidents and other street crimes recorded in the local police station.
Have something to report? Tell us in text, photos or videos.
He said this is the result of the continuous dialogues and coordination with barangay officials here who are in the frontline of any potential criminal activity.
“Maganda yung pakikipag-ugnayan natin sa mga leaders sa barangay kaya kung mayroon nangyayaring kakaiba sa kanilang lugar ay kaagad nila tayong inaabisuhan,” he added.
Arcega said barangay tanods (village watchmen) had been effective partners of local police in promoting peace and order in their respective localities.
“Sila yung nagsisilbing force multipliers na katuwang natin sa pagpapanatili ng ating katahimikan dito sa San Luis (They serve as force multipliers who help us maintain peace and order in San Luis),” he said.
With this, Pampanga Police Provincial Director Edgardo Tinio, during the turnover ceremony of tricycle patrols led by Governor Lilia Pineda Wednesday, lauded Arcega and his group for a job well done in their campaign against criminality in the area.
Tinio said with the additional tricycle patrols in all the 17 barangays here, the town’s peace and order situation is expected to remain in good shape.
