THE UNITED STATES, COMPLAINANT AND APPELLEE, VS. BRAULIO ALMASAN (ALIAS PABLO PIANGA), DEFENDANT AND APPELLANT.
D E C I S I O N
JOHNSON, J.:
The evidence shows that the defendant, together with four more persons, did, in the month of October, 1903, enter the house of one Bartolomea Oclarino, in the pueblo of Salasa, and then and there, by force and violence, take and carry away the sum of 700 pesos, Mexican, four golden rosaries, four pairs of golden earrings, one golden cross, one golden chain with a medal, two umbrellas, two hats, one suit of men's clothing, and one blanket, all the property of the owner of said house.
The defendant here was the only one of the persons who entered the house on said night who was identified by any of the persons who were robbed. The defendant was arrested and taken into the custody of the law on the night of the robbery.
The foregoing facts were supported by the testimony of several witnesses.
The evidence is sufficient to support the sentence of the court below, and it is therefore affirmed, with the costs in both instances. So ordered.
Arellano, C. J., Torres, Mapa, and Carson, JJ., concur.
