The years that former Manila Mayor Isko Moreno spent in Tondo prepared him well in warding off pickpockets who targeted him while he and his family were on vacation in Paris, France.

Moreno’s son, actor Joaquin Domagoso, shared the failed robbery attempt on his father in an interview with showbiz website PEP.ph.

“Somebody tried to steal from my dad. They’re bullying my little brother sa carnival. And then, parang mino-modus nila. Medyo ginang-up ang papa ko,” Domagoso said.

“They got to a small push-push fight. They ganged up on my dad. Buti na lang my dad covered his pockets,” Moreno’s son added.

Domagoso said that while his father shrugged off the robbery attempt, his youngest brother, Drake, cried after seeing “big guys” rough the former mayor up.

“Pero si Papa, medyo ngingiti-ngiti siya kasi parang inis siya nang konti sa nangyari, but he [wanted] to keep it down. He doesn’t want Drake to feel bad,” the young actor said.

Moreno and his family went on a 17-day European vacation months after he lost in the 2022 presidential race.
