Cisco Vs Police

Yesterday, another robbery took place. Maybank at Upper Bukit Timah.

Robber was carrying a fake gun, and took a hostage. Cisco guard fired 2 shots, and wounded the suspect.

Times must be bad...

I remembered a few years back, another armed robbery took place in another bank in Singapore. Cisco guard proved themselves worthy, so far.

I can hardly say the same for our Police force though.
Recently, a case of drunken foreigners were rowdy and police were called in.
Ended up having the whole gang attacking the officers, and 1 was wounded. Eyewitness accounts saw the other officers were "blurr" and even ran away.

Is Singapore so safe, that our own Police officers cannot even handle a gang fight ? Even a group of 10 vs 4 officers ?

The joke of it was after the gang beat up the poor NS officer, they sat back down to continue their merrymaking session, while the officers had to call for back up and didn't know what to do until a senior officer reached the scene.

A while back, while 2 officers were checking up on 2 young men, suspected drug abusers, one of them managed to grab an officer's sidearm, and shot the officer in the leg before running away.
