Based on initial investigations, the woman took a taxi on her way home around 12 a.m. on Sunday.
However, she asked the driver to stop in front of an auto shop along Logarta Avenue in Brgy. Mabolo so that she could use the restroom.
The woman entered the compound of the auto shop, but shortly after, she started shouting, police said.
She allegedly went wild and scratched the vehicles parked inside using the handcuffs she had as part of her Halloween costume.
The 43-year-old manager of the auto shop, Reyna Suerte, then had to intervene and place her under citizen’s arrest. Suerte then called the police for assistance and turned the woman over to them.
Police said the woman, who remained in detention as of this posting, would face a charge of malicious mischief.
