Bulacan Police Debunk Viral Claims of Crime Surge: Province Remains Safe

Bulacan, Philippines – Authorities in Bulacan are strongly dismissing recent social media posts and circulating rumors claiming a significant surge in crime rates within the province. Police Chief clarified that these reports are entirely false and constitute fake news, reassuring residents that Bulacan remains a safe and secure place to live and work.
