Teen who foiled robbery should become a cop

Members of the Northern Police District (NPD) are encouraging the 18-year-old student who foiled a jeepney robbery on Friday to join the police force.

Jonathan Tacorda, 18, of the Polytechnic University of the Philippines grappled with an armed robber while riding a jeepney along 4th avenue, Caloocan City.

This eventually led to the arrest of suspect Emerson Camba.

After charges were filed against the suspect, NPD’s Police Officer 2 Reymel Villanueva seriously suggested that he become a policeman, the Philippine Star reported.
