Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte was caught
on camera punching a sheriff of the Davao Regional Trial Court who was serving a demolition order Friday.
Initial reports said Duterte had asked the court for a 2-hour extension to allow residents of Barangay Kapitan Tomas Monteverde Sr. Suliman, Agdao to leave the demolition site, but her request was ignored.
As a result, Duterte went to the demolition site and punched sheriff Abe Andres.
She later said demolition teams and residents should not have met in the area.
The demolition caused tension after some residents tried to fight the demolition teams.
Some 500 families living in 217 houses are affected by the demolition.
