PNP ARRESTS QC CARNAPPING SUSPECT VIA UNIFIED 911 CALL

The Philippine National Police, under the leadership of PNP Chief PGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., acted on an emergency call received through the Unified 911 system, a public safety service under the Department of the Interior and Local Government led by Secretary Juanito Victor C. Remulla Jr. The response led to the arrest of a suspect in a motorcycle carnapping incident on Wednesday in Quezon City through CCTV-based tracking operations of Police Station 5, Quezon City Police District.

On May 5, 2026, PS5 received a Unified 911 report regarding a missing motorcycle. CCTV footage traced relevant activity back to around 4:00 AM of the same day, prompting immediate tracking operations. The complainant, a 27-year-old male resident of Barangay Greater Fairview, Quezon City, reported the incident.

Through continuous CCTV backtracking and forward tracing, operatives identified and arrested the suspect at around 4:30 PM in front of No. 36 Datsun Street, Barangay Greater Fairview. The suspect is a 23-year-old male resident of Barangay North Fairview, Quezon City, known by the alias “Pangga.” The stolen motorcycle was recovered during the operation.

The suspect was processed and turned over to the District Tactical Operations Center for documentation and inquest proceedings. The case will be filed before the Quezon City Prosecutor’s Office for violation of Republic Act 10883 or the New Anti-Carnapping Law of the Philippines.

The operation highlights the PNP’s Focused Agenda, particularly in strengthening police operational response and enhancing crime response capability through real-time reporting systems and CCTV-assisted investigation, ensuring immediate action on reported incidents and faster resolution of property-related crimes.

PNP Chief PGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. said: “Immediate response to emergency reports allows us to resolve incidents and recover stolen property. We assure the public of firm police action on all complaints.”

“Ang agarang aksyon ng pulisya ay mahalaga sa pagpapanatili ng kaayusan at seguridad. Tinitiyak ng PNP ang tuloy-tuloy na serbisyo laban sa krimen,” he added.

As the PNP continues its intensified anti-carnapping operations under the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., it continues to assure the public of “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong mabilis, tapat, at nararamdaman.”

In Opol, Misamis Oriental, personnel of the Opol Municipal Police Station under Police Regional Office 10 (PRO 10) acted on intelligence reports and verified suspected illegal stockpiling in Barangay Limonda. Authorities discovered about 1,500 sacks of suspected mineral ores valued at ₱2,535,000.00.
