SINGAPORE – After Anna’s Gourmet at Holland Village closed for the day on Nov 11, it was met with an unpleasant surprise – a shattered window.
In an Instagram post on Nov 12, Anna Jaeger, the owner of the speciality store that sells food and drinks from Central and Eastern Europe, including wine, caviar and cheese, said that someone had smashed the shop’s window with a rock on the night of Nov 11.
The post showed the storefront window with a large crack and a hole.
In the post, she said: “I am personally very disappointed to see such an act of vandalism... This is very ‘un-Singaporean’, after many years living and working here.”
In a reply to The Straits Times on Nov 14, she said that a Chip Bee Gardens resident alerted her to the incident that happened around 8pm. She went to the shop immediately and made a police report on the same evening.
In photos shared by Jaegar, besides the large crack in the window, a rock could be seen on the ground outside the store.
