Foiled rape

A 21-YEAR-OLD woman foiled a rape attempt while she was on her way to their comfort room outside their house in barangay Subangdaku, Mandaue City, on Sunday dawn.

The victim reported the incident to the Subangdaku police precinct after the perpetrator fled.

Police initial investigation revealed that the victim was on her way to the toilet around 2 a.m. when a man grabbed her and poked a bladed weapon at her throat, which prompted her to shout for help.

The man, whom the victim could not identify because it was dark, fled but dropped the 11-inch knife in the site.
