00:00 A barangay in Quezon City arrested a 10-foot long elephant

00:05 that they found in the garden of the barangay.

00:09 The elephant was found inside a prison and left a scar on its skin.

00:15 Vel Custodio in the news.

00:17 It can be seen in this video that the barangay's echo aid is helping to catch an elephant.

00:27 He first climbed up the fence until they were able to catch hold of it.

00:31 The elephant was standing on 10 steps.

00:34 According to Jose, the first elephant he saw,

00:37 he was cleaning the garden of the barangay when the elephant suddenly appeared on him on Wednesday afternoon.

00:43 My colleague told me, "Kuya, there's a snake."

00:46 When I turned around, the elephant was already behind me.

00:50 I told him, "Don't run away now."

00:52 I told him, "Hold on to the tail." He held on to it.

00:58 I told him, "Just hold on to it." He let go of it.

01:00 We all started to clean it.

01:03 They first tied it to a sack and transferred it to a prison in the barangay.

01:08 It was okay. We let it rest in the prison.

01:12 Because it was changing its skin.

01:15 They poured water on it so it could rest.

01:18 After a few minutes, it became active again.

01:23 They were planning to turn over the last elephant they caught in the DENR yesterday morning.

01:27 But the elephant seemed to have already escaped from the prison.

01:32 It was like this.

01:34 When my husband woke up, he said, "Oh no, the snake is gone."

01:40 It was just a few minutes before the elephant escaped.

01:43 It left a trail of skin.

01:45 The barangay's order to those who see the missing elephant,

01:48 "Don't hurt it."

01:50 They called the barangay.

01:53 So that we could go there.
