CAMP VICENTE LIM, Laguna – A lone gunman carted away more than P360,000 in cash from a grocery store in Lipa, Batangas on Friday morning.

The robber reportedly posed as a customer before poking a gun at the employees of the shop located in Barangay Dagatan.

The robber locked the workers in a room before fleeing, taking with him the shop’s earnings and the phones of the victims.

A day before, two armed men robbed a similar store in Barangay Pasong Langka in Silang, Cavite.

The robbers reportedly forced the workers to open the vault where the money was kept.

The suspects hogtied the workers before fleeing.
