Smash & Grab in front of Publika...Again

14/8/13

shared by Ye Kar

Dear all, thank you for your concern, calls and messages last night. For those who don’t already know, I fell victim to an attempted snatch theft yesterday evening which happened at the 4-way traffic light just outside of Publika (heading towards Jalan Duta). I was initially pretty shaken, but eventually made it home in one piece with just some small cuts on my hands & legs.

At about 6:20pm, two Malay males on a bike stopped right next to the passenger side of my car. My heart sank when I saw them looking in because I knew just what was about to happen. In a split second, they smashed my car window but thankfully, I managed to grab my bag & turn my body away just in time to avoid the glass from getting into my eyes. When I looked back, the bike had sped off and they had failed to steal anything from me.

The reason why I decided to write this is because I wanted people to know that of late, this area has been notorious in cases like mine. I say this because 2 of my girlfriends have also had their windows smashed on this very same road, so please get your windows security-tinted & be extra vigilant when you're in the Mont Kiara/ Solaris/ Hartamas/ Publika area. I was unlucky that I let my guard down yday but was fortunate enough to have escaped unharmed. Bottom line is, this could happen to anyone & no one can ever be too safe these days so stay alert & take care.

Shopping Cart "cartjacked" in Mydin USJ Subang

Morning

My dad did some grocery/supermarket shopping and after paying proceeded to gift redemption counter. In just split seconds, he turned towards his trolley and no where to be seen.

He looked around but no unattended trolley to be seen. He alerted a security guard closeby. He asked a couple of questions like what are obvious purchases easily detectable. Dad said right on top, a crate of eggs and 2 big bags of rice on the side.

The security walkie talkied others and meantime they went all around searching and even to the car park.

Then a security guard alerted a trolley found unattended closeby entrance. Dad verified it was his. Most likely, the person noticed that security on the lookout and decided to abandon the trolley there.

So please do not take things for granted as anything can happen in just split seconds...

Group of Teenagers End Thieves’ Getaway Plan
[shared here few days ago, the complete details]

The Star 1/7/13

PETALING JAYA: A group of teenagers stopped two thieves from hauling away stolen goods after they chased them down into a drain in their neighbourhood.

Lim Hock Wei, Wendell Yeo Guo Wai, Lim Eng Yew, Liew Chun Lap, all 17, and Low Chan Yin, 18, were at a mall here at 4pm on Saturday when they noticed a commotion where mall security guards were involved.

“We had just returned from supporting our friends at a competition and were having lunch. We saw the guards talking on their radios and pointing at two men who were walking across the road calmly but broke into a sprint after they reached the gate into the neighbourhood compound.

“We got suspicious and decided to chase after them,” said Hock Wei.

He said the suspects were holding plastic bags filled with clothes.

The SMK Bandar Utama 4 students then split up and ran after the suspects, who had by then reached an alley.

“I saw one of the guys and locked eyes with him. He immediately started running away and we shouted and chased after them,” said Wendell.

He said the pair tried to hide in a drain outside a house in Bandar Utama 4/9 but were cornered by the students and other residents.

“We shouted ‘Keluar! (Come out)’ and tried to force them out. Some of my other friends ran to get the mall security guards to come over.”

The thieves were apprehended by security personnel and Rela officers at 4.30pm.

A source said the two men pepper-sprayed three guards stationed at a shopping centre while making their getaway.

Details of the incident were posted on the PJ Community Alert Facebook page and went viral, with Netizens hailing the boys as heroes.

The boys downplayed their part in the entire incident.

“We are basically aware of crime in our area and just wanted to stop one that we saw,” Wendell said.

Thanks to Jessie Seng for sharing her experience.

I feel I need to share mine too so that ladies are aware and be forewarned.

I used to read in the papers of people having this experience which is commonly called “pukau”.
This is what happened and it was at the Arcade at Cineleisure, E-Curve some time ago (before Ikano was named IPC).
I send my son for his music lesson and usually stay on for a movie. We had spare time about half hour before the movie start so we stopped by the arcade for some games. There weren’t many people. My son and his friend were playing the shooting game, the game machines being arranged in a row along the sides of the wall while I sat on a stool opposite them playing the ‘jewel matching’ game. I was not feeling well that evening having cough and fever, about 7pm and had taken my dosage of anti-biotics (this could have contributed to the weakened sense to what was about to happened).

My son called to me for additional coins to continue to play and our conversation may have attracted or alerted the ‘thief/con’ or whatever as I did not see him.

I had my handbag with the sling still on my shoulder and the bag resting on my lap as I played seated and my purse held with my left hand resting on the bag. In a moment, I smelled something like a mix of prayer incense, jasmine and perfume. It smelled very strong and I had the mind to think that how come there is this type of smell in this place.

Next moment, it was time to go and I went for my purse to take the movie tickets out and I could not find my purse. No where at all. Well, the hoolabaloo of searching and reporting followed.

For those who analyse that “how come the ‘smell’ does not affect the perpetrator” – that’s because it is being used by them to be directed to a “victim” – a set intention.
One cannot answer what one cannot comprehend.

I think Jessie Seng was very smart and to have acted bravely.

I tell myself and my friends to be alert and if you smell something like this, to look around and move out. And I’m sharing here as I want as many ladies to know and be aware. Not to be fearful and avoid your activities but be vigilant and know that these type of ‘crime method’ exist.

Mid Valley Bag Cutter - Beware

17/2/13

shared by Alan Woo

This happened today just a few hours ago. at 3pm. Midvalley Megamall.
My mom went to Komugi Bakery to buy few buns. She came out with a plastic bag of buns. The "thieves" probably thought she left her wallet in the plastic bag with the buns because she wasn't carry any wallet or handbag ( I paid for the buns ). The was a deep pen knife cut at the bottom of the plastic bag, you could see and realize that it was done on purpose and it was a few penknife slashes. Please beware and becareful, Do not put any valuables in your paper bag or plastic bag because they will definitely walk away with it since today is a Sunday and it's super crowded in the basement.

Pickpocket at Curve

shared by Sharon Xian Lim

My parents got pick pocketed by a group of young men on the escalator by the underpass between IPC and the Curve 45 mins ago. They were sandwiched between 2 men in front and 2 men behind. Nearing the top of the escalator one of the men pretended to "shiver" violently and my old folks were worried. Unbeknownst to them that was planned. My dad found his backpack opened (nothing missing) and his cash in his pocket gone. The men made a u-turn at the top of the escalator back down. This is the escalator beside McD @ the Curve. Please be careful when u r there and be wary when you see a group of young men around the escalator. My parents were marked because in retrospect my dad remembered that they were hanging around there until my parents got onto the escalator.

Pickpockets

Beware or pickpockets at Paradigm Mall. I was in H&M Paradigm Mall approximately 4.10pm in Sunday 13/Jan. I realized my phone was missing as I entered the fitting room. Isn't wasnt too long that I realized it was gone. I reported to the shop manager, the management of Paradigm Mall and also lodged a report to the police at KJ. After lodging the police report, I went back to Paradigm but the manager said that I cant watch the cctv footage without the presence of a police. But the manager said he can watch it on my behalf. Cctv wasn't much of a help. He said he couldnt see much. Apparently, there were 2 other cases at the same time in h&m as well. So pls be aware of ur surroundings. These people are getting better at this. And I hope the security at malls are better so everyone can feel safe and shop peacefully. Just thought of sharing this to all of u.

Frightening experience: Darren demonstrating how the robbers held his girlfriend Lee during the incident.

PETALING JAYA: A Christmas eve date ended in a nightmare for a hairstylist and his girlfriend when a group of men armed with machetes ambushed them in a mall carpark and fled with RM4,000 from his pocket and the pair’s mobile phones.
Darren Lee, 26, said he and his girlfriend, 24, who only wanted to be known as Lee, had just left a Christmas eve party at the Sunway Pyramid at about 4am on Tuesday when they were waylaid by seven motorcycle riders, who were all armed, in the car park.
“We feared for our lives. They were were really rough,” said Lee, adding that the mob pushed and shoved them and demanded that they surrender their money and valuables.
“They threatened to abduct my girlfriend if I did not hand over all my cash,” Lee told reporters here yesterday.
“I gave the RM4,000 I had, as well as our mobile phones.”
Lee said the culprits sped off on their bikes after the robbery. “It happened so fast,” he said.
Lee then pressed the I-Alert button at the carpark.
Security guards who arrived at the scene within a minute helped Lee and his girlfriend lodge a police report at the Bandar Sunway police station.
Meanwhile, the mall’s chief operating officer Kevin Tan said security would be stepped up in light of the incident.
“It is unfortunate the group of motorcyclists had tresspassed into our parking area after the mall was closed.
“With the New Year coming, our security officers will be more alert and vigilant,” he said yesterday.
“We are committed towards ensuring the safety of our customers... this incident is an isolated case,” he said.
Subang Jaya OCPD Asst Comm Yahya Jamil confirmed the incident.
