The suspects refused to pay the bill, claiming it was too much. Tae and Sik reportedly shouted at the restaurant’s staff, pulled out dollar bills from their pockets and ripped the money. The waiter tried to pacify them, but insisted that they should pay the bill.
“I was embarrassed and humiliated in front of our staff. At this point my wife approached them and advised them to be civil in their actuation, but they ignored her and Mr. Choy Sy Yong even strongly pushed her aside,” Valbuena said.
He then asked for police assistance and had them arrested.
Apart from the estafa, he is considering filing additional charges of unjust vexation and for drunk and disorderly conduct. – Evelyn Macairan
