CPL Lim Shares

Hello readers! As can be seen from the title of this post, We managed to interview CPL Lim and she gave us some advice to share with the readers.


To prevent/fight against Car Vandalism, 

1. Get a car protection sheet
2. Form a neighbourhood crime watch
3. People to monitor car parks from their HDB Flats
4. Request for camera to be installed around the car park if possible
5. Purchase a latest device that is like a camera to be fix in your car
6. Lastly, report to police

Lastly, there's a campaign to remind us to always be vigilant which is "Low Crime Doesn't Mean No Crime" that I will share below.

Gangsterism

On the previous post, we covered on Vandalism. This post, we would be covering on Gangsterism.
I would like to share with you readers an account by Ms Poh Hui Li.  Ms Poh, who lives at Block 4 of Vic Street noticed this incident last week.

The story goes like this,
Ms Poh was walking home and walking through the carpark when she heard a group of people shouting. She looked around and saw a school boy being beaten up by a group of four other older boys. The older boys were holding weapons such as baseball bat and a plank of wood. Apparently, they were shouting in Mandarin and Hokkien. According to Ms Poh, two of them were holding the boys down while the other two were beating him up and they took turns. After awhile, they left and went separate directions.

Ms Poh described the older boys as around 18 years old and all have them have blonde hairs and has a tattoo. She assumes that they are associated to a gang.

The case is still under investigation and there are rumours spreading that the reason why the boy is being beaten up is because the boy did not pay them "protection money”.


With that, I would like to end this post and hopefully you readers stay and read more as I will be updating more.

*EXCLUSIVE : Victim of Car Vandalism

Greetings readers!
Today, I have an exclusive story to share with you readers.
As can be seen from the title of this post, "Victim of Car Vandalism" today I am going to share an account by a victim of Car Vandalism.


His name is Mr Loo Talkalot. Mr Loo lives at Block 12 of Vic Street. It happened exactly two months ago.
Mr Loo, shared that he's a vain person and that he could only remember the fashion side of things.

According to him, it was 11pm and he just got to the carpark to drive to his parents house because they are sick. Mr Loo spotted some guy wearing black vandalising his car. He shouted and the guy fled away. He could not remember that much details because it was dark. However, after that incident, Mr Loo claimed that he did saw someone familiar however still can't confirm it due to him being able to remember only the fashion side of things.

It's unfortunate for Mr Loo because he could not remember stuff otherwise the details that can be given the Police will assist them a lot in the hunt for the culprit.

With that, I shall end my post here. In my next post, we would talk about "Gangsterism"

TO: You

Yo,

Last nite was parking car at Blk 10 level 3 multi-storey carpark, and this is what I saw! I cannot believe it, so terrible of people to do such things to another’s car, no respect what so ever. See the pictures I attached? All these cars are sprayed with paint and scratched, my god! Hope you can forward this email to all our neighbours to warn them that vandals are around and making trouble for us!! &*#^$% one!

Hope everyone can be on the lookout for each other and inform suspicious characters in our neighbourhoods. Oh yah, you know that policeman Pete right? Maybe you can check with him on any tips for us when parking our cars?

PS: Check out the crime-prevention posters I snapped last week, you think they work meh?

Another story that I would like to share is an account by Mr Tan Bee Wee.A student of RP and a resident of Block 3, he was reluctant and afraid to share his experience at first but after awhile, I managed to convince him to share his account on this.

What happened was Mr Tan was on his way back home after a long day in school. It was around 8pm that the incident happened. According to Mr Tan, he was reaching his block when he suddenly heard scratch noises and soon sound of a spray can being sprayed. Out of curiosity, he traced the sound and to his horror, he saw some teenager who appears to look like 16-18 years old vandalising a white car at the carpark behind  his block. The white car was sprayed with red spray and there were many scratches on the car.

Afraid to speak up, Mr Tan kept quiet and just went back to the lift lobby and took the lift up.
So, when asked how the man looked like, Mr Tan managed to described him.
According to him, he look like a teenager aged 16-18 years old.
- Height of around 168cm.
- Tanned 
- Thick eyebrows
- Body quite build.

So that was an account by Mr Tan. I would like to share another account by Mrs Vejaya which involves a similar vandalism.

Mrs Vejaya, a resident of Block 7, claimed that she saw a similar accident. She was at the playground watching her two kids playing. Out of the blue, she saw a teenager aged 14-16 at a nearby carpark doing something mysterious. Curious, she went closer to take a look. She was shocked to find out that the teen was spraying randomly on the car. Angered, she shouted at the guy. The guy looked and saw her and panicked. He ran away immediately.

According to Mrs Vejaya, the guy was wearing white school uniform and has a tattoo on his neck that looked like some form of a dragon. She then reported to the police and are now working closely with them to find the culprit.

That is all readers for this post. On my next post, I would share an account by a victim of car vandalism.
Till then.

Hello readers. I'm Mr Danial Tan, a citizen journalist for this newly created blogsite named CT Awareness.
So what does CT Awareness? It is actually Crime Terrorism Awareness. As we all know, there's an alarming issue of crime rate increasing in Vic Street, the Police wanted to create public awareness about the measures implemented in the neighborhood to detect and prevent terrorism.

Basically, the purpose of this blog is to start a Crime and Terrorism awareness initiative. The aim of this blog is
To be alert about the current crime situation.
To get advice on how to prevent and stop crime.
To contribute and report on crimes happening in their immediate vicinity.
To get updates of police actions.
To be aware of the actions required to fight terrorism.


In my next post, I will share more on vandalism.

Till then,
Goodbye.
