Break-In at USJ 3/1B

A house break-in occured yesterday at Jln USJ 3/1B. It was discovered by the next door neighbour at about 11am today when she went over to feed the fishes as the house owner were overseas for a duration of 5 days.

The thief had possibly climbed over the gate and broke the grill door hinges were the padlock was and force his way thru the wooden door. The house was not equipt with an alarm system which made it easier for the thief. While noticably, none of the electrical items such as flat screen tv, computers and laptop were taken, the house was totally ransacked. Not sure of what was taken as the owners ( who had been immediately informed ) were only now on their way back from the holiday.

The neignbour informed the committee members at 12pm and we were on hand to call the police patrol who promptly responded and they went in and did a quick survey.

Neighbours are advised not to take for granted the fact that our area has been free of crimes for the past 1 year since we became guarded and gated. Despite the guards patrolling every hour, coupled with the resident bicycle patrol every night, do note that despite all this precautions, they remain only preventives and deterents against criminal activity in our neighbourhood, and not a 100% guaranteed especially when professional thieves have your home targeted. Note the following advice by the Police Dept.

1) Get to know your neighbors.
2) Engage with the community.
3) Inform your neighbors/ Resident Committee members if you are out of town.
4) Do not leave junk mails and newspapers uncollected.
5) Switch on light in your porch each night and leave a light in your house on when outstation.
6) Report to the guard or Police if you notice any suspicious characters
7) Arm your alarm system ( if you have it )

Our sympathy to the house owners at Jalan USJ 3/1B.
