Last Friday night, or September 9, 2005, at around
11-12
pm, we were on our way home.
We just turned into gilmore coming from
e.rodriguez when a green Sentra drove up na
nagwa-wangwang and shone a spotlight on the
driver's side,
presumably, to blind me (i was driving) and force
me to stop. Then
they cut us off and three men armed with m16
rifles came
down and carjacked us. They took us somewhere then
transferred us to the Sentra They then took the
car, a Honda
CRV.
There were four men who took us in the
Sentra. They took our ATM cards, credit cards,
watches, jewelry and celphones. Even our ID
cards. They threatened us that if we didn't give
the pin
numbers in our accounts, they would kill us. So we
gave
them our pin numbers and they went around
withdrawing our
money. They dropped us off in Pasay sometime
around 2 am with nothing but the clothes on our back.
We're posting the message to warn everyone not to
pass that
area and to watch out for these men. Apparently,
this is not
the first time they have done this. In the past,
they shot a
woman who tried to escape. So everyone, please
take care.
We don't want what happened to us to happen to you.
According to the police, Hemady and Gilmore are
their favorite haunts but they also wait at the
new Katipunan/ Blue Ridge underpass.
Just be careful guys. Its so easy for people to
say that I should have done this or that to get
away but if you have a loved one in the car and
there are guns pointed at you, the options arent
as simple as just speeding away and hoping that
the carnappers wont open fire on you or that
either of you wont get hit if and when they do.
Just be aware of your surroundings and avoid
passing streets where few cars pass or are
deserted at night.
More importantly, always say a little prayer that
the Lord will keep you safe when you are out at
night as you never know what bad elements you
could encounter, from drunk drivers to armed
carnappers.
We are just thankful to God that we were let off
safe and unharmed. Im thankful they didnt hurt my girlfriend
(and that I wasnt seriously injured, just a few
bruises and scratches).
Thanks and keep us in your prayers.
