PAMPANGA, Philippines – Authorities arrested Roel Alvarado, the barangay secretary of San Isidro, Floridablanca, Pampanga, on Monday, August 19, for his alleged role in a car loan scam that defrauded public school teachers in the area.

Alvarado, 34, was apprehended at Astro Park in Angeles City by the Philippine National Police-Highway Patrol Group (PNP-HPG) following an arrest warrant issued on August 5. The warrant, which was authorized by Judge Gladys Pinky Tolete Machacon of the 2nd Municipal Trial Court in Cities (MTCC) in San Jose Del Monte City, Bulacan, charged him with nine counts of estafa.
