The wee hours of the morning yesterday was a perilous one for the employee of a convenience kiosk along Serangoon Road, whose store got robbed by a balaclava-wearing duo.
Armed with a flick knife, the two robbed cash amounting to $1,100 in cash and 20 cartons of cigarettes, as well as an iPhone before fleeing the scene.
Police responded swiftly to the scene soon after, and spotted two suspicious men who stupidly fled upon seeing the cops. One of the suspects was arrested during the chase, and the other was nabbed at Blk 520 along Woodlands Drive 14 on the same afternoon. Cash, cartons of cigarettes, gloves, a balaclava and an array of weapons were seized from them as case exhibits.
