Drunk man sprays tear gas into QC neighborhood, gets arrested

Some people really shouldn’t drink.

“Earlier this week, a man named Sammy Sanchez  was arrested for spraying tear gas in Project 2, Quezon City, which caused several of his neighbors to faint and vomit,” reports Kori Quintos on ABS-CBNnews.com.

Sanchez admitted that he was drunk when he sprayed the gas.

However, that’s the only sane part of his story.

He went on to say that the canister of tear gas was given to him by a friend and that he sprayed it because he was “showing his neighbors what they should do in the event that a burglar breaks into their homes.”

Sanchez insisted that he “only sprayed the gas in an upward direction to avoid affecting his neighbors.”

Alas, the report said about 20 people went to the local police station to complain about Sanchez’s tear gas stunt.

The report noted: “Police said Sanchez may face charges for alarm and scandal and physical injury.”
