CAUAYAN CITY: A 61-year-old village chief and his two sons were arrested in their homes after yielding a cache of firearms during a raid in Purok 4, Barangay Buyon in this city, last week, police said. Buyon village chief Jessie Eder Sr., 61, and his sons Jessie Jr., 33, and Rojie Eder, 39, were arrested through a search warrant issued by Executive Judge Reymundo Aumentado of Regional Trial Court Branch 20, LtCol.
