700 vs 3

by jimmy on March 19, 2004

Saw this on ST as I tried to catch-up with home news – Big hunt for robbers who fled to Tekong.
Apparently 3 clueless armed robbers from our neighbours up north decided to make a run for it and headed to Tekong of all places, the island where we train our NS boys.
Now among the 700 looking out for them, there are guardsmen, reconnaissance troops, the Special Operations Command and Gurkhas among the crack units deployed, along with 12 search dogs.
And till now, the 3 have yet been found.
According to CNA – “To search for three people in a forested area is not easy,” said Lt-Col Tan.
Hmmm.
Oh…and this from a NS boy: Safe in barracks, the recruits took things more lightly. One sent this SMS message to his girlfriend: ‘Yeah! 16km road march cancelled…armed robbers running around Tekong.’
Should have ended that SMS with a big SHIOK AH!
