SINGAPORE - The police are appealing for information on a man who robbed $3,000 from a SingPost branch at Potong Pasir Community Club on Thursday afternoon (Feb 8). There was no weapon involved and no one was injured. The police said in a statement on Thursday that they received a report of the robbery at about 1.30pm. The male suspect had walked into the branch wearing a white surgical mask and allegedly demanded the female staff to hand over all the money, the statement said.

The male suspect was wearing a black cap, a black sweater, blue jeans and black shoes, and was also carrying a black sling bag. He was last seen running in the direction of Upper Serangoon Road, along Potong Pasir Avenue 1. Police investigations are ongoing.

Suay for the 10 owners though In this case the 10 owners can only sue the clown via a civil suit for damages as the latter's insurance will not compensate anything right? From AsiaOne: http://motoring.asiaone.com/Motoring/News/...103-393243.html Suspected drink driver rams into 10 cars in Potong Pasir SINGAPORE - A driver believed to be intoxicated rammed into 10 parked cars in a HDB carpark in Potong Pasir early this morning, before falling asleep at the wheel, the Shin Min Daily News reported. The incident happened at about 2.30 am at the car park of blocks 137 and 138 of Potong Pasir Ave 3. According to the Chinese evening daily, the man had earlier drove his car up a kerb and struck a lamp-post before speeding away. But he returned 30 minutes later, after realising that his license plate and bumper had fallen off because of the impact. Said an eyewitness, Mr Wu, 40: "The driver wanted to park his car in a lot, but I don't know how he ended up hitting 7 cars in the process." In an attempt to get away, Mr Wu said the driver knocked into 3 other parked cars. The driver's car ended up wedged in between 2 cars. According to another eye-witness, Mr Tan, 35, the man then got out and pushed the car in a bid to free it. When that failed, he returned to the car and subsequently fell asleep at the wheel, said Mr Tan. Mr Tan added that the police and officers from the Singapore Civil Defence Force arrived shortly after. BMW damaged Said businesswoman Ms Lin, 26, the owner of a BMW which was damaged in the accident: "If only I'd returned home from work later." Ms Lin had arrived home just 15 minutes before the accident. She said she heard a loud noise after she got home and showered, but was too tired to find out what had happened. "I knew something bad happened when I looked out the window this morning and saw that my car had moved," said Ms Lin, who had bought the car less than a year ago. [email protected]

There have been rumours circulating about Aljunied GRC this few days. Will the residents in the 3 areas care to share your experience in the state of municipal activities? Hougang remains under WP so it should be fairly straightforward. Now I am curious to see if Potong Pasir resembles Aljunied GRC.
