'Salesmen' rob agri supply store in North Cotabato

NORTH COTABATO - Two men neatly dressed and wearing gold watches robbed an agricultural supply store in M'lang town of P500,000 worth of cash in a daring heist, police said Saturday.

Chief Inspector Rolando Dillera, chief of the M'lang municipal police, said the suspects smartly introduced themselves as “sales representatives” of a multinational manufacturer of agricultural farm inputs to workers of a store owned by a local merchant named Mac-Mac Win before they pulled out their guns and declared a holdup.

Dillera said the tellers of the establishment did not have any hint that the two men were robbers since they both seemed sensible when they spoke about the agricultural supplies they offered to sell.

The suspects managed to divest the store’s cashier of P500,000 cash, which were supposed to be deposited to the local bank.

Dillera said the suspects casually walked away from the scene and disappeared.
