One week after a blast damaged some vehicles and a building in Makati City, police have started keeping closer tabs on motorcycles passing through the city's streets.

 

Makati City police head Superintendent Jaime Santos said they have also added patrols in the business district, radio dzBB reported early Monday.

 

Santos said they have started taking photos of motorcycles passing through the city's streets, particularly noting their plate numbers.

 

He also appealed to the public to call the police's hotline at (632) 887-4626 if they notice any suspicious activity.
