CALAMBA CITY, Laguna – Members of the Calamba City Police Station (CCPS) have apprehended a murder suspect ranked as the 4th most wanted person by the Police Regional Office (PRO)-Calabarzon.
In a statement Thursday, Col. Gauvin Mel Unos, acting provincial director of the Laguna Police Provincial Office (LPPO), said the suspect, identified only as alias Ren, was captured Wednesday afternoon in Barangay Bagong Kalsada, Calamba City.

The court did not recommend bail for the suspect.
