Reggae Singer

(Panama-Guide) - Dia a Dia - Six men were arrested and arrested and two 9mm handguns were seized as the result of a high speed car chase that began in Punta Chame and ended at a police checkpoint in Capira, during which criminals and officers of the national police exchanged gunfire. The popular Reggae performer Rubén Woogbine, better known as "Ramiro Blaster" was involved in this incident. Alvin Reyes, the police commissioner responsible for the Western part of the province of Panama, said this incident happened at about 1:30 am. Police learned there were about four 4x4 Pathfinders in the area of Punta Chame, and when the police went to the area the occupants of the vehicles immediately opened fire, and tried to flee. This triggered a high speed chase from Punta Chame until the bus stop near "Queso Chela" in Capira.

Among those arrested are: Rolando Abdiel Arrocha, Gustavo Bárcenas, Rubén Tejeira (who was hurt in the side), José De La Cruz, Edgar Tejada and Rubén Woogbine. All those arrested and the cars they used were taken to the police headquarters in Ancon, where they will be tested using the Ionscan equipment to determine if there are traces of drugs. It is assumed these men were engaged in criminal activity, but this is still under investigation.
