Security guard foils rape attempt

A security guard out on patrol rescued a 28-year-old handicapped woman from a tricycle driver who allegedly tried to rape her.

Supt. Jose Mario Espino, Muntinlupa City police chief, said the woman, who had a limp, was waiting for a taxi ride in Filinvest, Alabang, when tricycle driver Aldrin Villamente stopped and offered to bring her to her destination.

Villamente later stopped in an isolated area and began to rape the woman. He also robbed her of her mobile phone and cash.

However, security guard Teodoro Anciano, who was patrolling the area, arrested Villamente and brought him to the police.

Villamente faces rape and theft charges. He is currently locked up at the Muntinlupa city jail. — Rhodina Villanueva
