MANILA, Philippines -- THREE days after two armed men seized the luxury vehicle of fashion designer Rajo Laurel, Makati City police have yet to come up with suspects.
Makati police chief Gilbert Cruz said he notified Southern Police District headquarters about the theft of Laurel's Toyota Prado on Wednesday night.
"We are still trying to verify the reported incident. We also have no leads on the identity of the suspects so far," Cruz told the Inquirer in an interview.
Laurel, a top fashion designer, said his driver reported the incident to the police just a few minutes after two armed men forcibly took the black SUV with Plate No. ZBD-821 at around midnight on Wednesday.
The designer said he was having a few drinks with some friends at Glorietta while his driver, Ruben Rabino, parked the car along Leviste Street in Legaspi Village.
Just before midnight, Laurel called up his driver to ask him to pick him up.
"But my driver wasn't answering his phone when I called him," the designer told the Inquirer over the phone.
