Dagupan PNP arrests two robbers

TWO men were arrested in a follow-up operation by the police, after robbing two persons at the Bonuan Tondaligan Beach.

Investigation showed victims Brendelle Fabro, 20, resident of Alipangpang-Villa in Pozorrubio town, and companion Raven Claire Notorio, 20, of Casibong, San Jacinto, were at the beach, when suspects Rolly MAnaois, 32, and Junie Llamas took their cash and two smartphones at gunpoint.

The victims immediately rushed to the nearby police precinct and a follow-up investigation was promptly conducted.

Manaois, a resident of Sitio Longos in Barangay Bonuan Boquig, was eventually tracked, thanks to the victims’ cellphones linked to their Google Account, that indicated the phones’ locations. Llamas was later arrested in Barangay Bonuan Gueset.

The gun they used, however, was not recovered.

The suspects are currently under police custody, as further investigation of other robbery cases in the city are being probed that could establish a connection with the suspects.
