Briton sues Pinay girlfriend for sixth theft

MANILA, Philippines - After allegedly stealing from him for the sixth time, a 67-year-old British man reported his Filipina girlfriend to the Manila Police District (MPD) yesterday.

“That lady is not a good one. I even brought her to Palawan, Boracay but she took my money, my tablet on six different occasions. I’m fed up,” Stevenson Peter said as he was complaining before MPD’s general assignment section.

Peter identified his girlfriend of four years as Angela Joy Lopez of Olongapo City. She allegedly left him yesterday morning after taking 600 British pounds from his wallet.

“I’m fed up. She did this to me six times already,” Peter said, adding that he believed Lopez never really loved him.

Peter said he was having breakfast at a hotel in Malate when Lopez bid him goodbye and left.

He was not suspicious of her so Peter let Lopez go, but when he went back to their hotel room, he discovered that his wallet had been emptied.
