SINGAPORE - A teenager who broke into a pet shop and stole 10 live birds was placed on 18 months' probation on Wednesday.
Tan Quan Jin, 18, took the loot, worth $6,750, after using a wire cutter to enter Nan Seng Bird Shop Trading in Tanjong Katong Road on Oct 13 last year.
His alleged accomplice, 24-year-old Eric Leong Teck Wai, helped to load the items into a vehicle he had driving.
They split the loot and left the area, but Tan was traced later that month and his home was raided. Only $4,600 worth of the loot was recovered.

Did they find the birds braised or deep fried?
