Three armed men robbed a salesman and driver of a tobacco firm and took about P80,000 in cash and gadget in Murcia town, Negros Occidental on Tuesday Morning, August 9, 2022.
Rene Estores, 34, of Hacienda Paz in the town’s Barangay Calandog and Orlando Edeso, 31, of Purok Guanzon in Barangay Mansilingan in Bacolod City, employed as driver and salesman of Fortune Tobacco, respectively, told the police that they were at a sari-sari store when the suspects with unidentified firearm held them up.
They said the suspects took P66,000 in cash, a printer valued at P9,000, a dash camera valued at P23,000 and ignition key valued at P3,500.
Edeso added that the suspect also took his P1,000 in cash.
The complainant also told the police that two of the suspects were wearing facemasks while the other one was wearing a helmet.
