Cop goes after snatcher, accidentally shoots 2 women

The only silver lining here is that the two ladies didn’t die.

“On Tuesday, April 15, PO1 Dante Valdez was running after a man who snatched a woman’s bag under a footbridge in Quezon City’s Delta area when he fired shots that accidentally hit two women,” reports dzMM correspondent Robert Mano on ABS-CBNnews.com.

According to Valdez, he fired shots to stop the suspect. However, the bullets from his gun hit a car which was passing by the area.

The report said that “the car passengers, women aged 24 and 60, were brought to the hospital for treatment.”

Valdez has been placed under the custody of Quezon City Police District for an investigation. The snatcher he was chasing got away.
