During the arrest, officers recovered a loaded firearm from the suspect's bag, as well as the stolen cellphone, which was tucked into his waistband.
The victim positively identified the recovered cellphone as her own.
Police investigations revealed that the 36-year-old victim, an online seller, had been robbed after attending a pageant.
She was about to board a tricycle when the suspect approached her from behind and forcibly took her cellphone.

“Dala lang din po ng kahirapan. Ibebenta ko po sana para pambili ng pagkain po. Napulot ko lang po sa mga gamit ng tropa ko po ‘yun,” the suspect stated when asked by media personnel.
He is now facing charges of robbery and violations of the Comprehensive Firearms and Ammunition Regulation Act, in relation to the Omnibus Election Code.
