Makati condo unit dweller gets victimized by akyat bahay thief

A burglar entered a condominium unit in Makati City through a window and stole some valuables.

According to a report by Bernadette Reyes on Unang Balita on Monday, the suspect identified as Melody Feraro allegedly stole a laptop, bag, tablet, wallet, and other important documents from the condo unit of Christine David in Barangay Palanan.

The theft was discovered after the suspect was seen by security guard Mario Canaveral at the stairwell of the building.

Canaveral said he became suspicious of the suspect who was carrying a bag and a paper bag.

When cornered, the suspect refused to hand over the bags to Canaveral for inspection.

She insisted that the items she was carrying were not stolen.

Instead, Canaveral said, the suspect shouted "Rape! Rape!"

The security guard had no choice but to let her go.

Only later was it discovered that a unit in the condominium had indeed burglarized.

A person who knew the suspect returned some of David's documents.

David offered a reward of P2,000 for information on the whereabouts of the suspect.

The suspect's friend who returned David's documents reportedly asked if she could raise the reward to P5,000 but David flatly refused.

Suspect Feraro is still at large and is the subject of a manhunt. —KG/KVD, GMA News
