Worried About Crime in Your Area?

Police in Singapore appear to have a lot of time on their hands.  The Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC] says the island nation has one of the lowest crime rates in the world.
Police there recently conducted a major investigation to find the culprit who left three toothpicks on the seat of a city bus.  They nabbed a 60-year-old suspect who faces the possibility of two years in jail for that offense.
The Singapore police caught a serial litterbug a few years back who had been tossing cigarette buts out of the window of his apartment.  His punishment: a nearly $15,000 fine.
