Police said four employees of the YSA Skin Care Clinic in Barangay Bahay Toro lost eight cellphones worth P89,000, two iPads worth P44,000, an Acer netbook worth P8,500, P8,500 in cash, several ATM cards, IDs, keys and documents in last Thursday’s robbery.

Case investigator PO3 Al Ponferrada of the Talipapa police station said the robbers entered the establishment at the corner of Mindanao Avenue and Road 20 around 4:45 p.m.
