Vandalised cars

It's just so surprising to see people vandalising other people's car especially during the night time, these people definitely do not have much considerations for others and went along to do such acts. Last night, 3 cars from Blk 10, level 3 multi-storey carpark just got vandalised. A worker, 58, who was on his way back home witnessed this incident. These cars were vandalised with sprays, scratches made from sharp objects.




Mr Yen, who sent an email regarding this issues hope to warn the residents about this vandalising issues and letting them be more aware about it. He hopes that everyone will do their part to look out for one another and immediately report to the police if such case were to happen again or if they see any suspicious character.

This incident have not happen for the first time, two months back, as witnessed by Ms Tan Bee Wee who lives at Blk 3, a student from RP saw someone vandalising a car but she was too afraid to mention about it and only give a brief description of the man's looks; middle-aged man, height about 1.7m tall and was wearing green shirt and jeans. The police are still investigating on this case and if anyone has seen him, please contact them @ 999.

A victim of car vandalism 2 months ago, Mr Loo Talkalot was also interviewed by us. We were told that his car was badly damaged by paints and scratches which cause him to feel very depressed and would not want to see such happenings again. Thus, hoping that the police force are able to caught the culprits soon.

 

 Due to many vandalism cases, i have approached CPL Lim for some advice and preventive measures. He strongly encourage any eye-witnesses to report to the police immediately and do not take any actions on their own so that no evidence or vandals would be harmed.
Here are some advice given by him on how to prevent and stop crime:

  • do not leave or bring any valuables unattended
  • call the police immediately when you see any suspicious character
  • avoid going to dark areas during night time
  • ensure that all windows and doors are locked
  • install an alarm or camera
You may contact the Singapore Police Force for more information on crime prevention and tips for parking cars.
