Girl, 10, raped

CEBU, Philippines - A ten-year-old girl must have been overjoyed when a man offered to buy her and her friend ice cream.

The girl had gone to a bar in barangay Pajo, Lapu-Lapu City to see her mother who works there.

Pusok Police station chief PC/Insp Conrado Manatad said at the bar, a man named "Tagalog" approached the two girls and said he would buy them ice cream if they went with him.

The man and the girls then boarded a multicab, got off in barangay Pusok, and left one of the girls at a convenience store, telling her to wait for a while.

The man took the other girl to a hotel where he raped her.

Afterwards, the man and the girl went back to the convenience store to pick up the girl who was told to wait, and the three of them went back to the bar.

The girl came home crying and her grandmother, who noticed blood between her thighs, accompanied the girl to the police.

They were told to proceed to the Pink Room of the Don Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center for a medical checkup while the police went to work.
