SINGAPORE: Police have arrested three youths aged between 16 and 19 years old who are believed to be involved in a series of armed robberies island-wide.
In recent days, police received six reports of armed robberies committed by three male youths in various parts of Singapore, including Hougang, Bedok Reservoir, Crawford Lane, and Jurong West.
The culprits would use knives to threaten the victims into surrendering their valuables.
Simultaneous raids were conducted by police at various locations in Bedok North and Chai Chee.
On October 22 at about 4.30pm, the first 17-year-old suspect was spotted in the vicinity of Bedok North where he was known to frequent. The officers immediately moved in and placed him under arrest.
Two knives which are believed to have been used in the commission of the robberies were also subsequently recovered from the suspect's house.
Another operation was immediately mounted to apprehend the other two accomplices.
Police managed to locate the second 16-year-old suspect at one of his favourite haunts in the Bedok area.
A parang and a chopper which are believed to belong to the second suspect were also recovered from the vicinity.
The third 19-year-old suspect was finally arrested at his residence in Pasir Ris on October 23.
The three suspects will be charged in court on Saturday. - CNA/vm
