FBI Agent Robbed in Her Hotel Room
An FBI agent in Manila was forced to hand over “confidential documents” and personal effects when she was robbed at gunpoint in her hotel, police said.
Several men, one of whom held a gun, waited in the hotel for 30-year-old special agent Jennifer Boone, Philippine police said. The gunman escorted her to her room and took the documents, a camera and a mobile phone, police said.
A U.S. Embassy spokeswoman declined to give details about the stolen items but confirmed that the robbery had taken place. She said Boone was no longer at the hotel.
