Officers said the offences were reportedly committed between October and December this year, at Blocks 309 and 310 in Canberra Road.

He was eventually arrested at Blk 310 Canberra Road on Monday morning.
Officers also recovered about S$1,500 worth of stolen cash and valuables.
The boy will be charged in the Juvenile Court on 30 December 2008. - CNA/ms
