Armed Robbers Steal Mall Wages
Tuesday 26th of December 2006 08:06:04 PM
Police have announced that armed men wearing SWAT uniforms stole hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash when they robbed the Ever Gotesco mall in Quezon City, Philippineson on Christmas day. The robbers took probably took hundreds of thousands of dollars of the mall sales of December 23rd to the 24th, including the employees' payroll. Police cannot confirm the exact amount of cash taken at this stage. The thieves arrived at the Ever Gotesco mall in a Ford Expedition and a Mitsubishi Pajero, and were seen by witnesses as armed with highly powered weapons. The thieves told mall guards that they were answering to a suspected threat in the building. The Senior Superintendent Magtanggol Gatdula, also director of the Quezon City Police District suspects that the robbery was an inside job as he said that, “They knew exactly where to look, and they even knew the combination of the store vaults, so they were able to take the cash,” and the robbery was on a day where the employees pay day fell. There was also plenty of money in the treasury because of the Christmas rush shopping takings. Gatdula also said, "At the moment, all of those in the treasury office are considered suspects. We'll also talk to all the guards, even those who were not on duty that night."
The robbers destroyed the locks of the gate on the left hand side of the building and they headed to where the treasury office is located. The twelve guards on duty around the perimeter of the mall were disarmed and hogtied by the armed men. There is a possibility that the robbers' weapons came in some way from either the police or the military.

the chance to review the image is great for checking everything over one last time before printing. the time between reviewing the print and delivery was another positive, taking only a couple of days. my friends were really pleased with the finished items. unfortunately i was out when the courier called. he didn't note the date or time of his attempted delivery on his card and he hadn't filled in when or if he would attempt delivery again. on repeatedly phoning the company on a friday between 4:50 and 6 i got no answer. i then tried again on the monday morning, but once again i got no answer. after phoning clothes2order they resolved everything. i realise this is outwith the control of clothes2order, but it soured an otherwise excellent service.
Delighted with the results. Very popular so repeat orders very likely.
great service, no problems at all
