PBA player John Anthony Amores turned himself in to the Lumban Police in Laguna early Thursday, September 26, 2024, at around 1:55 AM. The NorthPort Batang Pier shooting guard is accused of shooting at Lee Cacalda, a resident of Barangay Maytalang Uno, Lumban, Laguna, following a heated argument during a basketball game.

Amores now faces charges of attempted murder.

Amores, along with his brother, John Red Amores, visited Lumban to play basketball at Barangay Salac.

The game, which had a PHP 2,000 wager, turned sour when tensions flared.

The altercation between Amores and Cacalda escalated into a shooting incident on September 25 at around 5:30 PM.
