Duo Robbers Who Snatched Student's Motorcycle in Broad Daylight in Cileungsi Arrested by Police

Police have arrested two individuals suspected of robbery after they snatched a student’s motorcycle in Cilengsi, Bogor, West Java. The two perpetrators carried out the crime during the daytime.

“Alhamdulillah, everyone has been caught: two robbery suspects and one fence,” said Cileungsi Police Chief, Kompol Edison, when asked for confirmation on Tuesday (16/06/2026).

Edison stated that the arrests were made through a collaborative effort between the Bogor Regency Police, the Metro Jaya Regional Police, Cileungsi Police, and the Setu Police (Bekasi Regency Police). The suspects have been handed over to the Metro Jaya Regional Police for further investigation, as the crime scene falls within the jurisdiction of the Setu Police/Metro Jaya Regional Police.

“The suspects have been secured, and the further investigation process is now underway at the Metro Jaya Regional Police; we have also directed the complainant there. The incident occurred on the border, just five steps away from Cileungsi’s jurisdiction. However, the victim lives in Cileungsi and reported the matter to the nearest station, which is Cileungsi Police,” said Edison.

Previously, a group of robbers armed with machetes snatched a student’s motorcycle during the day in Cileungsi, Bogor, West Java, which went viral on social media. Police are currently investigating the case.

“Yes, (the victim) has filed a report. We are in the process of investigating, and God willing, we will apprehend the perpetrators as soon as possible,” said Cileungsi Police Chief Kompol Edison when asked for confirmation regarding the viral video on Monday (25/05).

In the viral CCTV footage reviewed by detikcom, two men suspected of being the robbers are seen walking through a residential area. They passed several small children and walked towards a path lined with trees.

The video then shows the victim passing by on a motorcycle, shortly after the two men had walked ahead of them. The victim appears to stop at a bend in the road, followed by the sound of the robbers’ shouts from the victim’s location.

The Head of Criminal Investigation at Cileungsi Police, Iptu Ari Badau Dwi Haryanto, stated that the incident occurred on Saturday (23/05) at approximately 12:00 WIB. At the time of the incident, the victim was travelling home from school on a motorcycle.
