In a basketball game held at Barangay Salac, John Amores and his brother were among the spectators. As the match progressed, an argument between Amores and another audience member escalated. They were separated initially but met again in Barangay Maytalang. During their second encounter, it’s said that Amores drew a firearm and shot the other person, resulting in his own arrest following the incident.

The event was recorded on CCTV, leading to a broad public outcry against Amores. This, in turn, filled his email with threatening messages, as reported by Inquirer Sports. To secure their safety, the accused siblings turned themselves in at the local police station. On Thursday afternoon, John Amores and his brother chose to be arrested by reporting to RTC Sta. Cruz, Laguna.

In my own words, I can share that Police Major Bob Louis Ordiz confirmed the events in a subsequent press release. “They chose to turn themselves in at our station due to threats against their lives,” the police official explained. “Given their fear for their safety, it seemed like the best course of action.

Because they’re accused of participating in a violent crime, the basketball player and his brother are presently dealing with attempted murder allegations. Even though he’s been detained, Northport hasn’t released any formal comments about their position on John Amores.
