When The Straits Times arrived at the scene at around 3pm on Monday, the car park at HDB Hub was relatively full of cars and there were no signs of a scuffle.
A passerby who had been there at around 1.30pm told The Straits Times he saw blood on the ground of the basement 1 carpark. “I saw at least two police cars and around 10 police officers as I was turning out of the carpark,” he said. The police said they were able to identify the man and arrest him within 24 hours of a report being made, through ground enquiries and the aid of surveillance cameras.
Deputy Commander of Tanglin Police Division Teo Yee Lay commended the officers for solving the case quickly: “The police managed to track down the man swiftly and prevent him from harming others.When confronted with a robbery, the police urged members of the public to remain calm, take note of the perpetrator’s distinctive features and call the police as soon as possible.
