Chief Supt. Joselito Esquivel Jr. identified the suspects as Eddie Valliente and Ronald Calderon who were arrested on July 30 in Brgy. Bagong Ilog, Pasig City.
Police investigation revealed that the suspects with three other cohorts, all armed with handguns, forcibly entered the house of businesswoman Misella Maling at 54B Calumpit Street corner Bansalangin Street in Brgy. Veterans Village in Project 7 on Sunday and carted off several valuable items including a cellphone and a 32-inch LED television.
The five fled using a taxi, which turned out to be registered under the name of basketball player Douglas Kramer. Kramer admitted ownership of the taxi and helped the police trace his driver’s whereabouts, leading to the arrest of suspects Valiente and Calderon.
