S’pore police hunt bank ‘note’ robber

SINGAPORE: Singapore police said they are hunting a man who managed to steal more than SG$30,000 (RM90,000) from a bank using nothing but a piece of paper.

The suspect, described as caucasian, strolled into a Standard Chartered branch in an expatriate enclave of the city around lunchtime on Thursday and handed staff a note with his demands. Minutes later, he walked out of the branch with SG$30,000 (RM90,000) in cash, said a source close to the investigation, who asked not to be named.
