SINGAPORE: Police have arrested a 26-year-old man who is believed to have broken into an office along Jurong East Street 13.
Police received a report about the break-in at 6pm on Wednesday.
The suspect managed to escape through the rear window of the office after being confronted by the complainant.
He was arrested in a police operation along Woodlands Street 32 early Thursday morning, within nine hours of the incident.
Police said their initial investigations showed that the suspect is believed to be involved in another break-in in May.
The suspect will be charged in court on Friday.
If convicted, he can be jailed for up to two years and fined.
