Cagayan girl escapes from captors

- Charlie Lagasca -

BAYOMBONG, Nueva Vizcaya, Philippines – Police have confirmed that a 12-year-old girl was snatched by van-riding men in Tuguegarao City, Cagayan last April 6 but managed to escape from the safehouse.

The incident reportedly took place barely a week after a 16-year-old high school student was also seized by a group of men on board a white van in Amulung, Cagayan. The girl though was able to wrestle herself free from her kidnappers.

“We have already set up checkpoints in the province although we have yet to come up with confirmation about these reports of children being abducted,” said Senior Superintendent Mao Aplasca, Cagayan police director.
