Syrian, not Romanian, does Dracula?s role

By Ferdinand Fabella

Count Dracula in, doing his thing at a night club in Makati City but turns out to be a Syrian national who sinks his fangs in the neck of a waitress.

PO3 Arnel Noriega of the Makati Police Tourist Assistance Unit said Hassan Sarmini, 38, attacked Rica del Rosario, a guest relations officer, at the Wowow bar on P. Burgos Street, Barangay Poblacion.

Del Rosario had a nasty bite in the neck when she showed up at the police station to file her complaint against Sarmini, a resident in San Metro, Rizal.

In his report, Noriega said the foreigner, a regular customer at the bar, was with two other waitresses when he saw Del Rosario, a new employee.

After inviting her to his table, Sarmini started kissing her nape and throat until she felt a sudden pain.

Despite her pleading, Dracula-wannabe was biting Del Rosario but suddenly stopped to answer his ringing mobile phone.

Bouncers rushed in to help and overpowered the Syrian before taking him to Precinct 9.

?Probably he got pretty excited and bit her,? said Noriega, adding that the offender would be locked up and booked for physical injuries, absent a violation for neck-biting.
