CEBU, Philippines - An 87-year-old woman lost her cash and jewelry to a house helper who reportedly choked and sprayed her with an insect repellant before fleeing, in Barangay Mambaling at past 9 am last Saturday.
Victim Rosario Concepcion was knocked unconscious by suspect Arnel Servano, of Barangay Duljo-Fatima, whom she hired as painter of her house.
According to the victim, she was sleeping in her room when she heard a loud sound coming from the window next to the living room and later found upon checking that the window was already destroyed.
