Officers from Ang Mo Kio Division conducted follow-up investigations and identified four teenagers believed to be involved in these incidents.
The quartet, all aged 13, are currently assisting with police investigations into suspected rash acts under Section 336(a) of the Penal Code 1871.
If convicted, offenders face a prison term of up to six months and a fine.
However, as they are all minors below the age of 16, they may be charged in the Youth Courts and sent for rehabilitation.
SPF said it takes a “serious view” of acts that endanger life or personal safety, and will “spare no effort” to nab such offenders and deal with them in accordance with the law.
This is the third case of teenagers getting into trouble in Punggol since the beginning of the year.
On 22 Jan, a 17-year-old boy was arrested after allegedly injuring a police officer while fleeing on a personal mobility device (PMD) in the vicinity of Block 305A Punggol Road.
The police were called to the location after a group of youths were said to be making excessive noise there.
Another teenager, a 14-year-old boy, was arrested for allegedly tampering with a police mobile camera in Punggol Town Square on two occasions on 22 Jan and 2 Feb.
