According to reports, the sacks of rice were being transported to the Manila Port Area from Baliuag, Bulacan, when the 10-wheeler truck bearing the cargo was hijacked as it cruised along Abad Santos street at about 4 a.m.
Reports said the WPD-Mobile Patrol Unit then responded and tracked-down the truck just minutes later to a warehouse in Area B in Bagong Silang, Caloocan City where they also arrested three suspects identified as Jerry Solong, Alex Paga, and Rogelio Tuazon.
As of late yesterday afternoon, elements of the WPD-Mobile Patrol Unit are still conducting follow-up operations to arrest the other suspects. – Mike Frialde
