University of the Philippines-Diliman has reported a stabbing incident that took place inside the campus’ National Science Complex last Monday at 8:17 p.m.
The UP-Diliman Campus, in a statement, said: “The victim was immediately brought to a hospital. The Quezon City Police District has now taken over the case.”
It said it would step up its security measures and deploy more security personnel in different areas of the campus. “Everyone is reminded to stay vigilant and report anything suspicious to the authorities,” it urged.
Based on a report from the QCPD-Criminal Investigation and Detection Unit, the female victim was walking in front of the College of Electrical Engineering at 8:17 p.m. when three unidentified men suddenly appeared from behind and declared a hold-up robbery.
The victim screamed for help, forcing the suspects to stab her several times, then grabbed her bag containing a Samsung cell phone, a wallet, an identification card, an automated machine teller card and cash worth P500. The victim was rushed to Diliman Doctors Hospital.
Authorities, however, did not confirm if the victim was a UP student.
