Caught in the Act
Caught red-handed: Man takes bird worth $700 left outside Yishun flat

A man took a bird that was worth $700 from a flat at Yishun Ring Road in the wee hours of Sunday morning (Nov 20). His act was caught on STOMPer Kent's CCTV footage, and this was the third such incident, said the STOMPer.

The STOMPer wrote:

“This is the third time that a bird theft has been committed outside my flat in Yishun Ring Road.

“The latest theft took place at 2.43am on Saturday (Nov 20) when a man stole a cage containing a mata puteh bird worth $700.

“I don't usually leave the birds along the corridor but sometimes I forget to bring them in after bathing them outside my flat.

“I've given up reporting this to the police as they couldn't find a suspect for the first case.

“Instead, I hope bringing this incident here will deter people from turning to crime because there's a high chance they'll be caught on camera.

“There might be temptations all around but people should never resort to stealing."

Stomper I feel for u. My dad stays In hougang whereby my dad hang his mata Putih bird just for 10mins to sun tan when he discovered his $800 worth mata Putih been stolen. He also can't report as other stomper meantioned as he leave his valuables outside the house. I hope this culprit could be quickly caught by police.

Personal1 : Even if u drop $1 coin and someone picks up and place it inside his/her pocket, it'll consider (STEALING) to the police, so does it consider case close ? HAHA! Like that, alot of others ppl properties , we can just take it already in singapore!

When I complain that neighbour's drumming causing disturbance they say procedure dun allow them to intervene, I still thought they had more important case to handle; now theft also they can't be bothered.. Ppl, unless it's murder don't bother reporting
