A MUNICIPALITY in the province of Zamboanga del Sur lost P240,000 to burglars, a town official reported.

The incident could have taken place in the evening of November 30 but it was only discovered when the employees of Guipos, Zamboanga del Sur reported for work the next day.

Melvin Villarta, 48, the municipal treasurer of Guipos reported to the police that the burglars gained entry to his office by destroying the front door.

Villarta said the suspects managed to open the safety vault and carted away about P240,000 cash.

Senior Superintendent Michael Nicolas, Zamboanga del Sur police director, said investigation continues aimed to unmask and arrest the suspects as well as recover the loot.
