Teen seized in Tagaytay freed unhurt
Kidnappers have freed unharmed the 19-year-old daughter of a retired US Marine a day after snatching her, police said yesterday.
Chief Superintendent Ricardo Padilla, regional police director, said it was unclear if Cristina Loyola’s family paid the P3-million ransom that her captors had demanded.
She was freed Monday not far from her home in
The kidnappers freed the elder Loyola three hours after he and his daughter were taken hostage.
Police said four gunmen barged into the Loyolas’ home, tied up his wife and maid, then drove away with him and his daughter in the family car.
They took two cell phones, jewelry worth $1,570 and $1,900 in cash, and demanded the ransom.
“We are still conducting follow-up operations to identify and arrest the suspects,” Padilla said. – AP
