The Quezon City Police District (QCPD) is investigating a robbery where suspects posed as local government unit (LGU) personnel delivering a birthday cake to gain entry to a house in Barangay Pasong Tamo. The incident occurred on the afternoon of April 8, 2026.
According to a police report, the suspects restrained the 58-year-old homeowner and a helper before ransacking the residence. Stolen items included cash, jewelry, and two vehicles—a Toyota Fortuner and a Toyota Vios—with a total estimated value exceeding one million pesos (P1,000,000).
The QCPD's Criminal Investigation and Detection Unit has launched a manhunt for the suspects. Authorities are reviewing CCTV footage from the area and have appealed to the public for any information that could lead to the arrest of the individuals involved.
This incident has prompted police to remind residents to verify the identity of unexpected visitors, even those claiming to be from government agencies or delivery services, before allowing them entry into their homes.
