Police are conducting a manhunt for three inmates who were able to escape from the Tabaco City Police Station in Albay, a report on Balitanghali on Saturday said.

The inmates escaped Friday by climbing a wall, video from closed-circuit television showed, the report said.

The three inmates are facing charges involving illegal drugs. They were also slapped with charges of illegal possession of firearms.

The inmates were identified as Rendell Ryan Carbonel, Virgilio Bonaobra Jr., and Mark Anthony Yacat.

The bars apparently were sawed off.
