Joint elements of Caluya Municipal Police Station and Antique Police Provincial Office 1 Provincial Intelligence Unit (APPO-PIU) scoured the suspect’s house by virtue of a search warrant issued by Josefina F. Muego of the Regional Trial Court Branch 13, Culasi, Antique on June 22, 2022.
Seized during the operation were a caliber .45 pistol without serial number; a caliber .9mm pistol (serial number 16493); two magazines and five ammunition for caliber .45; and two holsters.

It was gathered that he had been charged for violation of Republic Act 10591 (Comprehensive Firearms and Ammunition Regulation Act) sometime in 2015.
