National Capital Region Police Office Chief Gen. Jonnel Estomo said heightened police visibility is being implemented in the area to prevent a recurrence of the crime.According to the police, Stacey and his girlfriend were walking when armed men riding a motorcycle approached them and declared a hold-up.
Citing the statement of Stacey’s girlfriend, the police said the back rider alighted from the vehicle and “pointed an unknown type of firearm at the witness and declared a hold-up while the rider parked the motorcycle a few meters away.”The suspects took the witness’ cellphone and wallet and fled the scene going towards the Pasay area.
The police said one of the suspects was wearing a black shirt and short gray pants with a half-face helmet, while the other wore a black shirt and a pair of red jersey shorts with a face mask but no helmet. They are still determining the identities of the assailants.
