According to Mandaue City Police Office (MCPO) spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Mercy Villaro, those involved are believed to be members of a fraternity.
Villaro explained that the group may have been attempting to create a disturbance out of boredom, possibly as part of an initiation meant to draw public attention.
“Nangtrip ra gyud ug nanamok didto sa lugar. Dili sila rambol gyud nga nagsumbagay ang mga lain-laimg grupo dili ingun ana. Pagchallenge tingali to siya sa usa ka miyembro nila nga manamok,” said Villaro.
The incident did not significantly affect the Mandaue fiesta 2025 celebration, and no injuries were reported.
