The police on Monday (March 23) arrested a 52-year-old man for public nuisance and mischief in Jurong West. 

A video posted on Facebook shows several vehicles in a carpark with their windscreens smashed. 

By comparing the building facade seen in the background, and the livery on a van — against Google Map's street view and publicly accessible business listings — AsiaOne was able to verify that the incident took place at 18 Enterprise Road.

The address is listed as the place of business for a diversified industrial conglomerate specialising in manufacturing, engineering, mining and distribution activities across Southeast Asia. 

Another video shows a man walking along Soon Lee Road towards Fan Yoong Road with police officers following him on foot and giving him instructions. He was seen holding a statue-like object in his right hand.

As five police officers, two with riot shields, closed in on him, the man was seen complying and squatting near a tree.

AsiaOne understands that the man seen along Soon Lee Road is the person arrested in relation to the incident at 18 Enterprise Road.
