In news abroad, a four-year-old boy in Wisconsin, USA, got some police officers scrambling after getting a 911 dispatch call. The boy apparently called 911 to report the supposed “bad behavior” of his mom. This prompted Village of Mount Pleasant police officers to pay a visit to the kid’s home. It turned out that the “bad behavior” he reported was about something he thought his mother failed to give him.

Meanwhile, in news back home, Sen. Imee Marcos released an official statement concerning the arrest of former president Rodrigo Duterte. She is calling for a probe on the arrest and would want to establish whether due process was followed in his arrest. The senator also said that she is inviting key officials and agencies including officials from the PNP, OTS-DOTr and a lot more. The senator said that such critical concerns regarding the country's jurisdiction and the policies concerning law enforcement agencies must be addressed.
