A police statement said that at around 4 p.m., while the actor's Toyota Super Grandia (conduction sticker TW 4208) was parked near a bookstore along Quezon Avenue when the two carjackers, at gunpoint, took the vehicle from Villaflor's driver, Jeffrey John Valdez.
Valdez was supposedly waiting for Villaflor's sister, Nikki, when the suspects pounced on him.
The carjackers drove the vehicle and asked Valdez to lie on his stomach inside the van, then drove the van to Mindanao Avenue- North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) interchange where they let John get off. He was naked when police officers found him.
Valdez said to police authorities that he heard one of the suspects talking to someone on his cellphone and mentioned a name "Niknok."
Meanwhile, according to Nikki, Villaflor's sister, she was about to go out of the bookstore when she saw that there were unidentified men who opened their vehicle, making her decide to stay inside.
The Anti-Carnapping Unit of the Quezon City Police District are already conducting follow-up operations and have requested CCTV footages from the bookstore and the NLEX.--ABS-CBN news
