BY KEVIN GALANG

BURGLARS on Saturday struck a home depot branch in San Fernando City, Pampanga.

In a report to Police Regional Office 3 director Brig. Gen. Jose Hidalgo Jr., the San Fernando City police said robbed was the CW Home Depot branch in Pampanga.

The robbers entered the establishment by digging a tunnel and destroying the floor of the Solar Lamps and Lighting store inside the depot. Once inside, the suspects destroyed a Metrobank automated teller machine and carted away an undetermined amount of cash.

The suspects then entered the home depot’s administration’s office by breaking the door’s padlock and took at least P300,000 in cash before fleeing using the same tunnel.

The store’s security guard Alfred Patrimonio, who reported for work on that day, discovered the robbery and immediately informed the police.

Police are investigating the incident.
