AFP Response to queries on the reported incident of a grenade explosion

Auth: Marine BGen Edgard Arevalo

An explosion purportedly from a hand grenade happened inside a military quarters occupied by an Enlisted Personnel assigned at the Home Affairs Office at GHQ&HSC in CGEA
Initial investigation shows that the incident happened around 6:20am of 12January2020 at an apartment unit occupied by SSG Larry de Guzman.

The soldier’s wife Erliza, 34 and his 11-year old son sustained shrapnel wounds and are now being treated at the VLuna Hospital.
The soldier sustained bruises; his 5-year old daughter was not injured. We are rendering the necessary assistance to the family.

No one else was hurt in the other adjacent housing units.
The incident appears to have emanated from a domestic problem where the spouses have been engaged in a heated argument prior the incident, initial investigation further shows.
Investigators from both AFP and PNP SOCO are doing a deeper investigation since there were indications that the wife could have triggered the explosion while the husband was about to leave their abode.
