Responding officers immediately went to the location to conduct an on-site investigation and verify the vehicle’s details.
Initial findings revealed that the SUV was allegedly used to transport the body of Senior Master Sgt. Diane Marie Mollenido, which was later dumped in Pulilan, Bulacan.
Authorities also believe the same vehicle was used to dispose of the body of her eight-year-old son, John Ysmael, in Victoria, Tarlac.
Investigators said the vehicle was positively identified by a suspect who is currently in police custody.
The suspect, a Lalamove driver from Novaliches, Quezon City, pointed to the SUV “as the getaway vehicle used in disposing of the bodies of the deceased in Pulilan, Bulacan, and Victoria, Tarlac, and later parked at the place of discovery.”
Police noted that the operation to locate and verify the vehicle was carried out in coordination with the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group and the Quezon City Police District.
Authorities said the discovery of the SUV is a crucial development in the ongoing investigation as they continue to piece together the movements surrounding the crime.
In separate developments, a barangay watchman from Tula-Tula, Rey Agripa Besmejo, has drawn praise after surrendering a lost wallet containing ₱9,350 to authorities. Instead of keeping the cash, Besmejo promptly coordinated with the police to help locate the owner. The Legazpi City Police publicly commended his integrity, describing his gesture as a model of honesty for the community. The wallet was later returned to its owner, Rico Marvin Prellegera, who expressed heartfelt thanks to Besmejo. The incident has since gained traction online, earning admiration from netizens.
In another incident, a security guard was fatally shot while resting inside a company stockhouse in Barangay Mabuhay. Police said two individuals have been tagged as persons of interest, both linked to recent disputes with the victim. One was reportedly a drinking companion prior to the incident, while another—also a security guard with a known personal conflict with the victim—has undergone gunpowder residue testing as part of the ongoing investigation.
