Riding in tandem strikes at Jorge and Jemson's shop (Sept. 16, 2013)

[OTEP]

For those who frequent our Electricals forum, the shop is a familiar place. And for Tsikoteers who have yet to visit them, here is their FB fan page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Jemso...50796818276590

Let's be careful always.

September 16, 2013. Around lunch time and in broad daylight, a customer and his female companion were having the driver side power window of their Mitsubishi Adventure repaired. The Adventure was parked with the passenger door curbside and the driver's door roadside.

The only people at the shop that time were Jorge (the boss and radiator man) working inside the shop's office, Proto (the all around and tint guy), and shop hand JR. The other guys were doing outside service or running for parts.

Proto removed the driver's window of the Adventure to do the repair and asked JR to run for parts. The driver chose to remain seated in the vehicle. His female companion left and was said to have gone shopping in the nearby stores.

Proto removed the window of the vehicle and placed it on the worktable. His back was now turned away from the Adventure. It was at this time that two individuals riding in tandem on a motorbike approached the driver of the Adventure and pointed a gun at him demanding for the jewelry he was wearing (alleged to be a very expensive gold necklace and gold bracelet set). The victim had a firearm in the vehicle but I guess he was outnumbered and was outdrawn by the bad guys. They fled after getting the loot.

The victim and his companion did not give chase to the suspects but proceeded to the nearest police station to report the incident.

***Post script*** The victims (especially the female companion) were asserting that the shop guys were in on the robbery! Proto and JR were picked up by the police and Proto actually had to spend the night in jail. I've been acquiring the services of Jemson since 1997 and the services of his current team for the past five years or so and I really don't think they'd get into the business of crime. But I guess the victims needed a finger to point to as the police never caught the actual thieves. Thankfully, other members of the community and local law enforcement vouched for the credibility of the shop guys and they were released this morning. But still.

Let's be careful always.

^bagong customer eh kaya ganun iisipin nun.
kawawa nga lang yung mga worker shop.
galing tumiktik yung holdupper.
the victim - i feel sorry pero part ng statistics na lang nangyari sakanya.

Ingat talaga lagi.... and for heaven's sake never wear anything expensive/flashy when you have your Adventure serviced on roadside Banawe.

Ano next, ituturo na tsikoteer daw yung nangholdap?

Otep, diba may tiga-QCPD na pumupunta dyan from time to time na kilala nila Jemson?

[Stoner]

It ain't no joke if you spent the night in jail.

Could/would Mr. Jorge be filing a suit against the couple? Or will he simply let bygones be bygones?

OFW siguro kaya maraming alahas sa katawan

Yan din naisip ko. Tama si falken, dumb idea yung hepa ka at tatambay nang ganun sa public place. Mainit sa mata. And going to jail even for 1 night is no joke.

Sana kahit man lang sorry makuha ni Proto sa mag-asawang yun but I doubt it. Baka siraan pa nila jemson. Sana huwag naman.

alam ko honest sila Jemson and mga mga sidekick niya. there were times na naiiwan ko wallet ko sa loob ng sasakyan while they're doing something inside. minsan madaming laman wallet ko (minsan lang naman), pero walang nawawala sa laman.

there are times pa na Pony will call my attention na naiwan ko wallet ko sa loob ng sasakyan.

Very unfortunate. That is the reason why I am only wearing silver accessories and using old model gadgets.
Why would someone wear a very expensive jewelries while having his/her car fixed? Pag nakita pa ng auto shop yun lalo pa tataasan ang price ng service and parts nila because they will assume that you have plenty of cash to burn. Hindi kaya Saudi Boy yung may ari ng adventure?
Anyway, ingat na lang next time and sana maging lesson na lang din ito para sa iba.

Yes, wala naman social classes kina Jemson. Directors, professionals, even celebrities go there.

Yun na nga masama, wala naman yun babae nung naganap holdapan pero ang lakas mag turo ng daliri. For all we know some conspiracy theorists will speculate na yung babae pa mismo nagpa holdap dun sa kasama niya kaya lumayo muna siya. What the eff can you buy in that stretch of banawe? Bakeries at Sogo lang ang nandun.

Crazy boy, nagpapa discover ka ba kay direk? Magiging kapuso ka na. Haha

galing ako dito last sept. 14, ginawa ni james power seat. matagal na rin ako nagpapagawa kay james, at yung mga dabarkads nya maayos kausap, gumawa. they cannot detained a person without formal case/complain filed against him, the mere fact that proto released the next day meaning walang kaso. walang probable cause.

Wearing expensive jewelry while you're having your car fixed by the roadside?! Dumb.

reminds me of the lady na biglang sumakay sa isang jeep na sinasakyan ko kahit din naman yun ang byahe nya, dahil daw may mga lalaking sumusunod sa kanya, paglingon ko sa babae na gold necklace at gold earrings. almost had facepalm moment there. kailangan ko pang sabihan yung babae na hubarin ang alahas nya at itago.
