A man visited Stomper Joseph's shop in Tampines to repair his electric scooter on Wednesday (April 11) and allegedly took $125 worth of items during his 80-minute visit.
Joseph owns cubeRpedia, which is located at Block 264 Tampines Street 21. The shop sells e-scooters, related accessories and electronic gadgets.
Recounting the incident, Joseph told Stomp: "The customer came to our shop and requested for us to take a look at his e-scooter's faulty rear light.
"During the repair, he was also looking around for items to buy.
"There was a moment when he squatted down and scrolled through our Carousell page. He seemed to be looking at what item to buy/take."
