Fujiwara Tofu Shop Owner Makes Police Report After Cyclist Steals RC Car

UPDATE (27 July, 7.50pm): The owner of Fujiwara Tofu Shop confirmed that the culprit has returned the stolen RC car.

Fujiwara Tofu Shop in Geylang has put up a post, with footage showing a cyclist breaking into the shop in the wee hours of the morning, making away with a remote-controlled car.

The owners are now looking for information on the person’s identity.

They’ve made a police report.

The cyclist does not appear to hesitate while entering the premises, perhaps indicating that this is pre-meditated.

While he is initially seen without a mask, he is donning one by the time he climbs over the fence.

 

After he enters the shop, he appears to retrieve a large yellow remote-controlled car and walks out with it in tow.

He then climbs back over the fence with the yellow RC car.

The entire video lasts just a little over a minute.

Culprit later returns car to shop

According to Mr Tan, he promptly made a police report after the incident.

However, in response to MS News’ queries on Thursday (27 July) evening, he shared that the culprit has since returned the stolen items.

This was apparently the first case of theft the shop has encountered since its opening. They claimed to not know the culprit in question, though some employees have allegedly seen someone looking like him loitering outside the shop before.

To prevent similar incidents from happening again, the shopowner plans to try implementing more security features.

Popular hangout spot for car fans

The shop, which opened in February 2023, pays homage to the long-running manga and anime Initial D.

The store resembles the eponymous tofu shop that the main character Takumi stays and works in.

Many in the street car community congregate at the late-night spot to grab a bite or talk to friends.

On many days, you can see lines of cars parked outside.
