Rider hurt after neck gets caught by string while driving along Las Piñas

A motorcycle rider was hurt after his neck got caught in a string while plying the Alabang-Zapote Road on New Year’s Day.

According to Jun Veneracion’s “24 Oras” report on Wednesday, Adonis Medina and his partner Baby Doll De Leon were on their way home to Kawit, Cavite around 8 p.m. when the rider felt something on his neck.

“Sobrang init na po, sobrang sakit na no’ng time na ‘yun. Medyo makapal-kapal siya sa normal na sinulid,” Medina said. “No’ng may umaano na sa leeg ko, naisip ko talaga baka madisgrasya kami.”

The couple stopped near the City Hall after the incident.

“‘Yung pumasok sa isip ko no’n, parang modus siya na aagawan kami ng motor,” De Leon said.

“Ang nasa isip ko naman, ‘pag nadisgrasya kami, kunwari tutulong tapos pagnanakawan lang,” Medina added.

However, Las Piñas police said it was likely just an accident and not a modus operandi since the area was near the City Hall and a police outpost.

“Sa aming tala dito sa aming investigation section, wala pa pong nangyayari o nai-report na ganyang insidente,” Police Major Eleazar Camiling said.

“Magsisilbing aral ‘to para ipaalam natin sa mga security officers na titingnan din nila ‘yung kanilang mga kalsada. Baka may nakatiwangwang na mga kable o mga wires o lubid na makaaksidente pa,” he added.—Julia Mari Ornedo/LDF, GMA News
