hey people.. wanna share some shocking news i encountered today........!!
this afternoon me and sien went bugis to do some shopping...
and cuz we walked very far and the weather was super humid..
so i suggested to go and have a drink at the coffee shop opposite parco
as drinks at parco itself is very expensive and sure have no seats...
the coffee shop got sell malay food.. and today is a friday
so the coffee shop was quite packed with people..
alot of malays...
it was rather strange i can say...
actually i had NEVER ate or drank at that coffee shop before..
today i suddenly just had that urge to drink there...
maybe it was destined.. so as for me to witness the event....
we were chilling and chatting happily while suddenly i saw a motor drove past
then a malay guy dashed out to push the motorcycle..
that malay guy was nearly hit and i shouted..
initally i thought it was the malay's motorcycle kenna stolen so he dashed out..
but then i saw a LV bag on the motorcycle, so i assumed it was a robbery..
then afew guys gave chase, some drove motorcycle and a few hopped on a subaru car and chased.. all malay guys..
so my immediately instinct was to look clearly at the plate number..
and luckily i managed to take a good look at it.. 7082
but i didnt see the whole thing cuz it was too rush...
i wanted to call the police, but i dont know what to say..
then i saw a chinese couple looking very shocked and flustered
so i went up to them and asked if they were robbered..
they said yes and i told them that the plate number was 7082..
they noted it down and quickly called for the police..
one lady found a broken, splitted hup andphone on the floor
and handed over to the victim..
i also wanted to call the media, but i dont have the number..
few minutes later.. 3 motorcyclists came back.. LV bag was with one of them..
then the subaru came back.. dragging the culprit out of the car..
initally i thought it was a young guy.. who knows it was a 50+ uncle who was dragged out..
his back was full of tatoos can.. wapiang.. so shocking
then suddenly the few guys who dragged him back started hit him..
slapped, punched and kicked.. but at the point of time no one stopped them..
i was too shocked to witness all that and started to shiver..
i knew the robber was wrong to rob, but he was also quite old already..
i dont think he can witstand all that beatings..
so we quickly got out of the place.. cuz i nearly cried already..
as we walked, i kept looking back.. i saw alot alot of people still looking..
even people from parco were all staring..
till now, i still cant get over it.. cuz it was just too shocking for me to bear...
i wonder what happened to that uncle and that couple..
i also kept looking at news.. but there was no report about it..
i told my parents about it.. my mum also think that the uncle maybe is really
at his wits end till he resorted to robbing.. maybe is for drugs or gambling..
my dad say if he was at the scene, he will surely step up to stop the guys from beating the uncle..
it was really like a drama/movie just now.. where i was involved.. as a witness..
actually i was glad that i managed to help in someway..
cuz if they nvr catch the uncle.. maybe my lead will help..
i just hope i can forget everything...
and not have bad dreams tonight.......
