The man who went viral after being choked by a security guard who chased him finally ended his silence after the incident went viral, one year after the original video was uploaded.
In his post, Christian Sariol debunked the rumors that he was severely injured after being choked by the guard.
He also said that he had already faced the consequences of his actions.
“Totally matagal na ‘yong video na ‘yon. So ‘yung video na ‘yon pinost ‘yon before pero hindi siya nag-viral,” Sariol said. “So ‘yung time na ‘yon, na-detain ako ng one month. Napagdusahan ko na ‘yong ginawa ko na ‘yon,”
“So ngayon guys, hihingi lang ako ng kaunting opinyon sa inyo para about do’n sa nanakal sakin,” he added.
Sariol grew his following after his incident went viral, and now labels himself as ‘boy sakal.’
“Hindi lahat ng nagkamali masama. Minsan, naligaw lang… at ang second chance, ‘yun ang ilaw pabalik sa tamang daan,” he stated.
It can be recalled that Sariol was chased by the security guard as he was already being monitored by the convenience store after he allegedly stole from the establishment several times.
The guard insisted that he only choked Sariol to restrain him as the latter was not cooperating with them.
