Kapamilya star Awra Briguela was arrested Thursday morning following a brawl that took place outside a bar in Barangay Poblacion, Makati City, a source at the Makati Police said.
In a phone interview, the police investigator who requested anonymity said that Briguela, whose real name is Mcneal Briguela, remained in detention after figuring in a fistfight with a group of people, which was caught on video and then uploaded on social media by netizens.
The police has declined to give further details on the incident, but said that charges have been filed against Briguela.
One video of the incident was uploaded by a certain @limetedryuu on Instagram, but the latter seemed to have already deactivated their account, but their video which has since been re-uploaded on social media showed authorities entering the scene and cornered Briguela. The 19-year-old actor-comedian was then handcuffed and hauled off to the police station.

Awra detained after Poblacion brawl; friends call for #JusticeForAwra
Awra’s side per her friend:
“Kinwento nya sakin ang sinapit nya matapos nyang ipagtanggol ang kaibigan nya laban sa grupo ng mga lalaking hinipuan ang kanyang kaibigan. Nauwi sa mainit na pagtatalo yung mga sumunod na nangyari na kung saan sinuntok sya ng nasabing lalaki. Nasundan na ng away sa magkabilang grupo hanggang sa dumating na yung mga pulis,” she added.
Complainant’s version of the events:
In the police report, Ravana said he was celebrating at the bar with his friends when Awra and some of her friends approached them and teased him to remove his shirt. He said he declined to do so and tried to distance himself by going out of the bar, but Awra followed him and pulled his shirt. A commotion then ensued and Ravana said Awra and her friends took turns “mauling” him.
