SINGAPORE – Three teenagers have been arrested over an alleged spitting incident in a shopping mall in central Singapore.
The two males and one female are aged between 17 and 19, the police said in a statement on Thursday (March 12).
The incident came to light after a video was posted online showing a male teenager spitting from a high floor in a shopping mall. A police report was made on March 3.
Investigations showed that an 18-year-old male was on level 4 of the mall when he committed the act on Feb 28 at about 6.30pm. Police did not name the mall.
The act was recorded and the video was later uploaded on his friend’s social media accounts. It is unclear how the other two teenagers were involved.
With the help of ground enquiries and images from closed-circuit television cameras (CCTVs), officers from the Central Police Division identified the three teenagers and arrested them.
Investigations are ongoing. Police said in the light of the coronavirus outbreak, such incidents can cause alarm and annoyance.
The arrests came in the wake of earlier incidents also involving teenagers.
