The Bohol ChronicleA member of the Meloy Garcia Robbery Group who survived seven gunshot wounds has been regretting his criminal acts
after doctors declared him permanently paralyzed from the waist down.
Cresencio “Bruts†Reguya, 27, had been bedridden after a critical surgery to extract bullets lodged in different parts of his body.
Reguya, together with cohorts, was fleeing the shootout with security guards of the Bank of Commerce when he was hit by a shotgun blast on his back from one of the guards.
Another bank security hit him with a .45 caliber round.
One bullet dislocated a disc in his spinal column that caused the paralysis.
More than two weeks after the incident, Reguya is still in pain as doctors just re-stitched the surgical incision through his chest down to his navel.
One more bullet is still lodged on his left shoulder. Unless his other wounds heal, doctors will not perform another surgery on Reguya.
Reguya said he feels guilty and remorseful of what he did as he was informed that one of the security guards, Remegio Cañizar, died from the shootout while two others were also wounded.
Reguya admitted that he shot Cañizar with Meloy Garcia.
