Robbery reported at USJ 11/3P

There was a robbery reported by a visitor to a resident living along USJ 11/3P tonight at about 10:30 p.m. The visitor and his family were waiting in their car for his friend just outside his house who lives along 3P. Six men on 3 motorcyles confronted them with parangs and robbed them of their wallets, valuables, car keys, etc. They were visibly shaken as they made their way to the police station to make a report along with their friend who lives along 3P.

This happened along the car park fronting the MPSJ building. The robbers had used the pedestrian crossing along that parking area to come into our area. This was the entry/exit that worried us, the committee as we had foreseen that something like that could happen. Unfortunately, we could not barricade the entrance as we had to seek the permission of MPSJ before we can do that. MPSJ had built that small bridge to allow the people who parked there to use it to cross over the drain and onward to the MPSJ building.

Now that this has happened, it will give us compelling reasons to barricade it immediately so that only pedestrians can use that crossing but prevent motorcylists from coming in through that entrance. We must now also seriously look at fencing up the perimeter of our area as soon as we can afford to.

As we have said, despite our security system being in place, there are still leaks so please be on the lookout for suspicious characters, be vigilant and alert at all times.

regarding the robbery, my opinion is to fence up that area for the 1st phase of fencing. I'm giving my opinion to prevent ppl living in USJ11/3P.
