A 67-year-old man was apprehended after he was seen sitting on the window ledge of a flat at Block 165A Teck Whye Crescent in the early hours of Jan 2.
Stomper G alerted Stomp to the incident and said that her neighbours noticed something was amiss.
“There was a burning smell that never usually comes from that level,” the Stomper said. “They tried knocking and checking if anyone was home, but there was no response.”
According to the Stomper, police later entered a neighbouring unit to get a clearer view into the flat from the back using a “long camera”.
“That’s when they saw the man by the window, looking down,” she said.
