A man suspected of shoplifting at a Cold Storage supermarket at The Centrepoint on Monday night (Mar 4) shattered a glass panel and used one of the broken pieces to threaten security guards. The suspect, who was said to be small-built and in his mid-30s, was eventually subdued and arrested. The Straits Times reported witnesses saying that the suspect was walking around shirtless while holding an orange plastic bag containing oranges, canned food and a bottle of mineral water he had taken from the supermarket. He was nabbed by supermarket staff after he put his shirt back on. According to a report in Lianhe Wanbao, the man later broke free and used his plastic bag to break the glass counter of a Jollibean outlet near the entrance of the supermarket. He used on of the broken pieces of glass to threaten security guards in a stand-off. The mall's management confirmed that its security team received a call for assistance from the supermarket at 8.50pm and three security personnel were dispactched. They 'engaged and disarmed' the suspect, before police arrived at about 9.30pm to arrest him.
