Surveillance footage has revealed a woman entering and stealing from a hotel in Daraga, Albay. 

The incident happened on November 12, 2023 with the woman entering the hotel casually. When no one attended to her on the ground floor, she proceeded to the second floor. There, she entered a room, rummaged through a cabinet, and stole a cellphone worth P8,000, as well as the hotel's earnings amounting to P25,000.

As casually as she entered, she then exited the hotel premises.

The hotel staff discovered the incident upon reviewing the CCTV footage, promptly reporting it to authorities. A follow-up operation led to the suspect’s arrest while she was inside a jeepney in Legazpi City.

Police also found that the suspect had prior criminal records. 

"May mga record na rin yun at yun nga ang modus niya, pagka-nagkakaroon ng chance na may manakaw at walang bantay, sumasalisi," said PLt. Col. Edmundo Cerillo, Jr., chief of police in Daraga.
