A 64-year-old woman lost P20,000 cash in a robbery in Dalaguete town, southern Cebu last Wednesday dawn.
Police said Maria Belen Amamangpang was with her helper Carmel Bascones aboard a motorcycle when the robbery occurred in barangay Obo.
Police said when the motorcycle driven by Jonathan Amancio,33, reached a blind curve in sitio Paling-paling, two men on a motorcycle flagged them down.
The two men then drew guns and declared a hold-up. One of the robbers struck Amancio in the head with a gun. Amancio ran, leaving the two women behind.
Police said one of the robbers sprayed Amamangpang’s eyes with tear gas before taking her sling bag containing the money.
