CEBU - A robbery suspect was found dead in waters off Barangay, Biasong, Talisay City in this province, Saturday.

The 34-year-old suspect, identified as Leonardo Panerio, allegedly stole 115 post-rack brackets from a subdivision in Barangay Dumlog last Friday, according to PO1 Maverick Polotan.

Panero allegedly fired at 2 security guards and responding policemen but missed. He then scaled a concrete wall and jumped into the sea.

"Our SWAT (Special Weapons and Tactics) team even chased him by a boat but lost him when he swam deeper into the sea," the police said.
