A group of kids allegedly robbed worth 200 pesos in a store near San Francisco Bus Terminal, Barangay 2, San Francisco, Agusan del Sur.

In a report from Mr. Richard Grande of Medianet Balita, the crime happened early in the morning where it happened that the owner didn't sleep in its store.

According to Mr. Nilo Mangayaay, the owner, that aside from the robbed money, the suspects had an instant shopping, where they drank the stock milk products in the store and their event cut the wire of a cell phone charger into pieces. And the most intriguing thing that those robbers left was the note "KAMONG NAGBANTAY SA TINDAHAN MGA BGOK MAN MO EH!!" (For those who guard this store, you're all Stupid, eh!!).

They suspected those minors because after the incident, they didn't see those children in the area anymore.
