Two men have been arrested by the Police after allegedly attacking a woman with a penknife at Jurong West. However, Police only managed to arrest them after a 4 hour stand-off.
Police were alerted to a case of assault at a bus stop near Blk 501 Jurong West Street 51. When the Police arrived, they found a woman with facial injuries and a lacerated arm, and were told that two men had attacked her. The woman was taken to hospital, and no reason were given as to why the woman was attacked. Police managed to track down the two suspects through extensive ground inquiries and police camera images to a unit at a HDB block at Jurong West Street 42.
The two men had apparently refused to open the door to their unit, and was eventually arrested 4 hours later after a locksmith was called in.
