MANILA, Philippines — Manila Mayor Isko Moreno has offered P1 million for information that could lead to the capture of the men who robbed a bank in Binondo in broad daylight Thursday.
At least seven men robbed the Metrobank branch in Sto. Cristo St. in Binondo around 8:40 a.m.
All bank employees are safe but the suspects took away the CCTV from inside the establishment, Moreno said in an interview on CNN Philippines.
“Seven men forcibly entered the bank, kinuha mga empleyado, nilagay sa kwarto. Yung initial report may nakuhang pera,” Moreno said.
