Beware of Quirino Avenue cor South Super Highway

Excuse me for this long entry again. But it might save you from the trauma of being
victimized by 'kawatan' (term ng kapatid ko). Familiar din ako sa lugar na un;
nagtataka rin ako bakit walang nakatira dun sa parang BLISS housing sa may
Designers Depot. Eto pala ang dahilan. At may police station pa dun ha.
Anong ginagawa ng mga *&^*&^%^% pulis dun?

Forwarded email ito, compiling various accounts/experiences in that area.
Private or public vehicle man, tinatarget nila. Baka pati mga shuttle, subukan din
nilang ganyanin. Don't even try calling 117, it's useless.
Please always be alert, be vigilant, especially when you are in that area.
Always pray and lock your doors.
================================================

For the general commuting public, maging driver ka man o hindi.... Ingat kayo when passing through south super highway cor quirino ave. On our way home from Makati, we took buendia then turn right to south superhighway, it was only 8pm and it was drizzling. we were cruising fine but it was a slow moving traffic. right after san andres st, there are these buildings which are modern version of home along the riles (near the designers depot), my wife screamed because somebody was trying to open the car from her side. sensing that it was locked he moved to the back door and tried to open it likewise, we were stocked in traffic and i was stunned that i could not think of anything to do but just look at him. so when finally the traffic moved he also moved away casually tucking the gun in his belly and staring at me as if saying you are lucky you locked your door. thank GOD my wife is so makulit in reminding me to lock the door evertime we go. kaya to all you people beware of that place. Actually you should be alert & be cautious when passing through south superhighway all the way to nagtahan.

Three days ago my driver had an encounter in this area. After dropping me off at work, the driver was on the south bound lane of South Super Highway near the home along the riles housing (near Sunday Machine Works and Designer Depot). As he came to a full stopat the San Andres intersection stoplight, a man approached the car's rear passenger side, grabbed the car's antenna and broke it. The man remained beside the car, apparently waiting for the driver to get down and confront him. Fortunately, the driver remembered my dad's warnings regarding these types of M.O.s and remained in the car. As the driver sped away, henoticed a group of men on the center island. It pays to be praning, Sara

Yes, I have witnessed a similar incident, maybe about a month ago, and reported it immediately to Police 117. A young man tried to open the passenger door of the taxi in front of me. About three or four girls were inside the taxi at that time. Fortunately, the door was locked. I pass this route coming from Malacanang every night. Fortunately for me too, my caris heavily tinted so I am not easy prey. I shall call 117 again. I suggest you do the same. Although I don't know if that would really help. Atty. Dara C.

A similar incident happened to me along Quirino Avenue somewhere between the Flying V gas station and Iglesia ni Kristo. 3 men approached my car IN BROAD DAYLIGHT! and SLOW TRAFFIC! and tried to open the back doors. Bumusina ako ng tuloy tuloy to BR ward them off. It's scary 'coz that area has no patrolling policemen. When they failed to open my car, they tried the other cars naman. I don't know kung may nabuksan sila. Then yesterday, while the PMAP rally was going on along Buendia cor. Ayala, as I was about to cross that intersection, two of the rallyists tried to open my car doors again. Again in BROAD DAYLIGHT! WITH A POLICEMAN AROUND! Hay, what the world has come to. I suggest you lock up and make a lot of noise to at least rattle those thieves. Judy
