Best Posts in Thread: Jeepney robbed

Jeepney robbed this evening near Siaton, no one was hurt, only collector was robbed of around the huge amount of 1000 pesos, no passengers were hurt or robbed. The news comes from Bongo bongo telegraph outside the police station in Siaton, sounds credible

 

Looks like it was a Ceres bus, not a Jeep

 

To many, I agree .... but to an alcoholic that amount buys maybe 10 bottles of rum and to a drug user an amount (I have absolutely no idea of drug prices, fortunately) which may sustain him even a little while. I think that to leave even P500 on display in a car would invite a broken window and its theft. Also, a robber does not always know how much he will obtain before he starts his act - once he finds it is 'only' 1000 then I am sure he will not discard it in disgust.
