One of the two suspects who stole the motorcycle of an active member of the Philippine Air Force (PAF) was arrested by members of the Pasay City Police with the help of his girlfriend.
Pasay City Police Chief Col. Joselito De Sesto identified the arrested suspect as "Anro," 29, while his cohort, "Andrei," is still being hunted by the police.
De Sesto said the victim claimed he left his motorcycle in front of his residence along 17th Street corner 2nd Street in Villamor Airbase wherein he forgot to remove the keys from his vehicle.
The victim immediately reported the theft to the Pasay City Police Substation 9.
The suspects were later identified by the police with the help of CCTV cameras near the area.
Anro's girlfriend admitted to the police that it was her boyfriend who took the motorcycle.
An entrapment operation was quickly launched by the police with the help of Anro's girlfriend which led to his arrest.
Anro was charged for violation of RA 10883 or the New Anti-Carnapping Act.
