CEBU, Philippines - An Information Technology student lost over P100,000 worth of gadgets to three unidentified robbers last Monday evening in Barangay Kamputhaw Cebu City.

The robbers took his P80,000 worth laptop, an 80GB external hard drive amounting to P20,000 and a Nokia cellphone amounting to P20,000.

The victim had just disembarked from a passenger jeepney and was walking on a dimly lit access road towards their compound when the robbery incident happened.
