Man Removed From Hotel by Police

Occurred on June, 2016 / Cebu City, Philippines

Info from Licensor: "I'm a former TV News cameraman from Hawaii and was staying at a condo-hotel in Cebu, Philippines. One quiet evening, I heard this commotion down the hall. There were dishes being broken, smashing sounds, yelling loudly, so my news instinct led me to grab my camera, always ready, and investigate. Here's this massive, dangerously overweight middle aged man, talking in a language I didn't recognize. He was doing so much damage that the police had to be called. I couldn't believe how patient they were while he was threatening them. Perhaps they didn't realize how large he was until they tried to put on the handcuffs. The next challenge was to get him from the third floor down to the lobby and the police car that was already waiting. They decided to try to get him into a luggage cart and push him in the elevator. He finally made his way down to the lobby but he couldn't fit into the police car so they had to send for a larger rescue vehicle and eventually off they went. What a dramatic situation! I never saw him again after that. We went to check his room and found 5 bottles of whiskey, two of them empty."
