SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): Two male teens, aged 15 and 16, have been arrested for their involvement in a bicycle prank in a major road in Queenstown.

Three bicycles – which appear to belong to bike-sharing companies – were parked across three lanes of Commonwealth Avenue, preventing vehicles from passing.

The prank came to light on Dec 20 when Facebook user Geraldine Lim took a photo of the bicycles at around 2am on the same day and posted it on social m

She said although a private-hire car drivedia.er managed to clear two of the bicycles, a taxi driver slammed into the third one before it could be removed.

A police report was lodged, and the teenage duo were arrested on Monday (Dec 23).

The police classified the case as a rash act with common intention, and said investigations are ongoing. - The Straits Times/ANN
