When I logged back in on Facebook late in the morning the image at the left was what greeted me. But what got my attention was the caption of the image poster (in all capital letters): “Pusang hilaw!!!!! Hinampas ako ng baril sa may paakyat ng Shotgun at ninakawan ako at kaibigan ko! (<Expletive>!!!!! I was smacked with a gun going up Shotgun and my friend and I were robbed!)”
So I clicked on the image of the bike and read the complete description with a short summary of what happened.
Here are a few details posted:
- This happened at around 5:15 A.M. today (March 23, 2012), at “Shotgun Hill”
- There were 2 suspects. One was thin, the other was a bit chubbier. Those are the only descriptions given
- They were armed with guns
- They were riding a motorcycle with a bright HID headlight
- The motorcycle didn’t have any plates on
- Other passersby didn’t even stop to help them out, even when there were quite a good amount of traffic at the time: cars, motorcycles, tricycles, trucks
- Police report was filed immediately
- The poster’s friend’s bike was thrown over the cliff and only the bike posted was carried by the robbers. I don’t know if they were able to recovery the friend’s bike.
I know how it feels to have your bike forcefully taken from you. I was a victim of a bike-jacking incident on the trails last year. Our bikes were taken at gunpoint. I really hope the bike gets recovered and the robbers (and masterminds) get punished to the full extent of the law.
I hope this entry helps in the recovery of the bike, if and when someone recognizes the parts and reports to the authorities A.S.A.P.

Eto ang masamang balita. Siguro maganda na magbike sa may bayad. Lungkot naman
If they can guarantee safety then I agree. But yes, malungkot nga naman kung dun lang tayo sa paid venues makakapag-bike.
Grabe naman to Bro. Delikado na pala sa shotgun magbike ngayon. Balak ko pa naman sana magbike uli dun solo, ngayon ayaw ko na, dito na lang muna ako sa tabi-tabi.
bulok na bike ninakaw pa hehehehe, walang taste ung holdaper
