Mayor Duterte punching a sheriff in the face | A screen grab of an "ANCalerts' video on Youtube Mayor Duterte got furious when the sheriff did not obey her order of having the demolition postponed in 2 hours since she was attending another problem in another area - the sheriff ordered his team to start the demolition right away, instead which caused tension between the residents and the police officers.
When Mayor Duterte arrived in the area, she reprimanded the team since a number of people were hurt in the demolition. She then asked the sheriff to come near her before punching him in the face, repeatedly. The mayor was blaming the sheriff on people being hurt.
ABS-CBN News was there to cover and was able to capture the incident on cam.
In a TV Patrol report, Andres said he'll leave the decision to the national association of sheriffs and added that he had forgiven the mayor. Mayor Duterte, on the other hand, said bringing the sheriff to the hospital was enough for a sorry.
Meanwhile, at the moment, the two ("Mayor Duterte" and "Sheriff") are trending on Twitter. Here are what people are saying in the microblogging site:
