KUCHING: A suspect in his 30’s was caught while two of his accomplices were still at large in an attempted break in into a shop house at Market Street at around 12.45 am yesterday.A member of the public who stayed nearby noticed a suspicious-looking vehicle and three suspects loitering suspiciously around a shop. He immediately rang the police for assistance.A suspect, who hailed from Surabaya, was caught after the police rushed to the scene in two MPVs but his two accomplices managed to escape.The suspect was driving a black Proton Savvy and he did not attempt to run or fight back when police surrounded the place. However, his two other accomplices managed to run away in the dark. Police found several items from the suspect including four cut padlocks believed to be from the targeted grocery store. Inside the car were three units of walkie-talkie, several housebreaking tools such as wire-cutter, iron-cutter, pliers, a crowbar and two plastic bags, a parang and 2 sets of Bunson burners. The burners were believed to be used for burning iron to soften it before cutting it. It was believed that this was not the first time the suspects committed such a crime as they were well prepared. The suspect who caught was believed to be jobless and was staying with his wife at Matang. By 2.45 am he still refused to reveal the whereabouts of his accomplices.With such paraphernalia at their disposal, the group was believed to be a professional one. Police are still investigating the matter.
With these robbers upgrading their tools, our law-enforcement officers should also be given training and better equipment to deal with this new development..
