菲籍抢匪持刀 劫本地闹市快餐店

魏瑜嶙 报道

　　狡猾抢匪闹市里持刀打抢快餐店，过后还耍“金蝉脱壳”，改变装扮摆脱追踪，但法网难逃，最终被警方逮捕。

　　这名抢匪是菲律宾人，32岁。他是在前晚企图乘飞机离境时，在樟宜机场被查案警员逮捕。警方经调查，于昨天上午捉到疑和他同伙抢劫的另一名菲律宾男子（30岁）。

　　警方初步调查显示，抢匪涉及市区里发生的两起“汉堡包王”（Burger King）快餐店抢劫案有关。

　　其中一起是发生在前天上午7时20分，被劫的是安顺路凯联大厦（International Plaza）地面层的汉堡包王（Burger King）快餐店。

　　抢匪是趁快餐店员工准备开门营业，四周走动的人不多，持着一把刀就上门打抢。

　　抢匪穿着黑色风衣和褐色长裤，戴着软帽、眼罩和口罩，一进门便以刀挟持一名女职员，把刀锋搁在她的颈项上，威胁在店里的快餐店经理，把保险箱里的现金交出来。

　　没想到这时另一名上班的职员，正巧走进店，看见这一情景，立刻掉头跑到外面寻求援助。

　　抢匪见事机败露，慌乱之中把刀丢在店内，拔腿逃跑，沿途还把胶带、脚车锁链等干案工具丢一地。警方事后在案发现场，找到一把刀刃长14公分的刀子。

　　抢匪跑出快餐店时，把自己的黑色风衣和褐色长裤脱掉，留下里面穿着的有领运动衣和黑色长裤，试图摆脱追踪。

　　负责这次案件的中央警署副署长郭世伟副助理警察总监向媒体公布消息时透露：“闭路电视摄像机所拍摄到的画面，是这次破案的重要线索。查案警员在另外一栋建筑内找到嫌犯脱下的衣服，然后调出那里的闭路电视画面，从而确认他的身份，并在他企图逃出境时将他逮捕。”

两嫌犯持准证

在本地工作

　　抢匪干案后不到15小时，警方于前晚10时30分左右，在樟宜机场逮捕了这名涉嫌干案的32岁男子。

　　警方接着也在昨天上午11时15分，在滨海湾一带逮捕嫌犯的30岁同伙。两人都是菲律宾人，持特别准证在本地从事餐饮业。

　　据知，第二名嫌犯在同伙干案时并没有进入店内，相信是在外头把风。不过，警方还在调查他在劫案中所扮演的角色。

　　查案警员逮捕两人后，经过一番调查，相信他们和4月16日发生的另外一起“汉堡包王”快餐店抢劫案有关。

　　被劫“汉堡包王”分店是设在地下滨海中心购物坊（Esplanade Xchange）。与上述案件相同，抢匪选在快餐店里没有顾客的时候下手。这次，抢匪是在凌晨1时左右，快餐店打烊当儿，假冒维修电工上门干案。

　　抢劫前，抢匪拨电通知该“汉堡包王”快餐店经理，待会儿会来店里进行维修工作。经理以为是购物坊管理层派人来进行例行维修，不疑有他，直到抢匪亮出利刀，逼她交出保险箱里的当天收入时，她才惊觉引狼入室，只好把保险箱内的现金交出来。

　　抢匪劫走了约共7000元现金，还用胶带把女经理的手脚捆绑起来，以胶带封住她的口。受害的女经理经过后脱困报警。

虽然两起“汉堡包王”快餐店抢劫案接连发生，不过，郭世伟副署长说：“打抢快餐店在本地十分罕见。他们的干案手法证明他们有备而来，显示案件的严重性。”之前曾经发生过便利商店和钱币兑换商遭打抢的案件。

　　预料，32岁的男嫌犯会在今天被控上法庭，一旦持械抢劫罪名成立，将面对监禁最长七年和鞭刑最少18下的刑罚。

　　另外一名30岁的嫌犯正在接受警方调查。

What make you think employees would be so willing to fight robbers for the company's money? I think even the owners of business will not defend their own money with their lives.

 

[karmabear]

If it is Chiam See Tong's shop, I will fight. If it is PAP dog's shop, I will provide Pinoy with his home address and daily movement schedule.

[jw5]

Pinoys as hostages/victims: Bad luck but ok.

Pinoys as perpetuators/robbers: Boh Bian, government dunno how to choose, but also ok.

But whatever you do, never ever have a Pinoy as a hostage negotiator.

Would-be robber who got cold feet convicted of lesser charge
By Shaffiq Alkhatib | Posted: 23 September 2011 1611 hrs

Porte Gerald Christian Magsalubong, 30, admitted to the reduced charge of being found with the dangerous weapon at Burger King outlet in International Plaza, Anson Road, on Jun 8. -- PHOTO: SPF

SINGAPORE: A waiter's last-minute decision to back out of an armed robbery at a Burger King outlet saved him from a heavier punishment.

But for having a bread knife near the scene of the crime, Filipino waiter Porte Gerald Christian Magsalubong, 30, was on Friday sentenced to five months' jail.

Magsalubong had hatched a plan with his flat mate, Charlie Cabo Perez, 32, also a Filipino, to commit armed robbery at International Plaza's Burger King outlet on June 8.

But shortly after the pair entered the building at Anson Road, Magsalubong had cold feet and left.

Perez went ahead with their plan. He was later caught and convicted in July of offences including armed robbery and criminal breach of trust. The former Burger King assistant manager was jailed five years and given 24 strokes of the cane.

Magsalubong could have met a similar fate if his initial attempted armed robbery charge had not been reduced to one of weapon possession.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Kumaresan Gohulabalan said the pair entered a locker room beside the fast food restaurant at around 7.00am that day and Perez put on a surgical mask to disguise himself.

Magsalubong's lawyer, Sunil Sudheesan, told the court his client tried to persuade Perez to do likewise but failed.
