The police said they received a report at about 1.50pm on Friday that a man dressed in a red top had tried to smash the glass display case at the pawn shop with a chopper.
He then picked up the broken pieces of the knife and fled. This all happened in the span of five minutes, said the manager. Following ground enquiries and with the aid of images from police cameras, Bedok Police Division officers identified the suspect and arrested him on Saturday along Yishun Street 22.
Despite that, Mr Lim said Bedok Police Division officers demonstrated “great resolve and resourcefulness” and managed to bring the suspect to justice.
