P800,000 cash robbed from crematory home in Makati

By

MANILA, Philippines—A crematory home in Makati City fell prey to still unidentified suspects who carted away P800,000 cash Thursday afternoon, police said.

Senior Police Officer 1 Jemcie Acosta said that four unidentified armed suspects were able to enter the BM Cremation Services in ANSA 11 building along Pasong Tamo corner Mojo Street, Makati City around 1: 15 p.m. by indiscriminately firing their guns at the office.

He said the office had a security guard, but apparently was “not that strict in performing his job.”

The suspects were also firing at people inside the crematory home but no one was hurt, Acosta said.

He said the suspects were able to flee the area with looted cash on board two unidentified motorcycles.

An investigation is being conducted to identify and locate the robbers, the police officer said.
