00:00You were caught when a rider stole a battery of a firetruck in Quezon City.
00:05Here's the first news, James Agustin.
00:12A firetruck stopped at Apo Street in Barangay Maharlika, Quezon City when a motorcycle rider approached it.
00:18Less than a minute later, the rider was seen leaving the area.
00:22He went to Malaya Street, then straight to Canlaon Street,
00:26until he reached Don Manuel Street.
00:28The male rider was caught on CCTV.
00:31The battery of the firetruck was stolen just a few minutes ago.
00:34The Quezon City Firefighters Volunteer Association Inc. was shocked when they discovered the theft.
00:40Until now, they haven't been able to use the so-called firetruck because it doesn't have a battery.
00:44At that time, there was a fire and when we were about to use the firetruck,
00:48we were wondering why it didn't start.
00:50When we checked, the battery was gone.
00:53We were wondering why.
00:56Then we went to the barangay, we checked the CCTV and we saw a motorcycle rider.
01:04The crime was reported to QCPD Station 1.
01:07The rider was continuously searched and caught.
01:10A few days before the incident, another firetruck of the group was also stolen.
01:16The barangay residents caught the man riding a tricycle.
01:19He was turned over to the police and he was charged with theft.
01:23He was already charged several times.
01:25So we were really targeting him.
01:28The people were robbing and when they saw the tricycle, they called for backup.
01:34Of course, he was forced to remove the battery.
01:41That's why they arrested him.
01:43Due to the following incidents, the fire volunteer group added more CCTV cameras.
01:49Any emergency, every second counts.
01:52If there's an alarm going off, we have to respond.
01:56We might lose our equipment or battery.
01:59That's a big thing.
02:00We will continue to look for robberies in our area.
02:07This is the first news.
