SINGAPORE: Police on Tuesday (Mar 29) arrested a 45-year-old man suspected of vandalising shut circuit tv (CCTV) cameras at Block 9 North Bridge Road.
The police have been alerted to a case of vandalism on the location at about 10.55pm on Sunday.
Preliminary investigations confirmed that the man allegedly sprayed black paint on eight CCTV cameras and lower the wires of two of them.
Officers established the man’s identification and subsequently arrested him on Tuesday. He will probably be charged in courtroom on Wednesday with vandalism.
If convicted, he may very well be jailed for as much as three years, given between three and eight strokes of the cane and fined as much as S$2,000.
“The police deal with those who commit such inconsiderate acts firmly, as such acts can inconvenience the public and may delay the police’s response to persons in need,” the police stated.
