SINGAPORE: A man has been arrested for threatening bank officers with a parcel which he claimed would explode.
Eyewitnesses told Channel NewsAsia that a man entered the UOB Branch at
the City Plaza building in Tanjong Katong on Monday afternoon at about
3.40 pm.
He was said to have threatened that a parcel he was holding would explode, if he wasn't given money.
As a precaution, the second floor above the bank had to be evacuated.
A guard at the bank managed to pin him down and he was later arrested and taken away by police. - CNA/vm

It's because the common robbers that rob banks don't have elaborate planning, they just walk in pretending that there is a bomb in the package, that's why all the bank robberies are failures in Singapore, maybe it has to do with the intelligence of her citizens.
You would need careful planning with a group of robbers plus knowledge of the security system in the bank itself.
Also need to plan getaway.
This guys is so retard, didn't even take out the cisco security officer. ![]()

after the last few times by other failed robbers .......... still can have this kind of situation. obviously one man can't doi it mah, want robbery also must have team and proper planning. real weapon also, last one try toy gun this one green bag....... haiz....
Robber is poor and decides to rob bank. Attempt fails and he has to spend jailtime. A further lack of income for years to come.
This is just an analogy of how the poor get farked, and .....farked. And the children get farked too.
poor does not mean u can commit crime

Criminal's children are the worst. They will never get out of the poverty cycle.

The parcel was probably the robber's "Progress Package" from the previous election that he was returning and hoping to exchange for something more substantial...
This joker beats Mr. Bean hands down in his practical pranks![]()
