Actor Ben Yeo's Chai Chee coffeeshop hit by two break-ins in June
Singapore actor-host Ben Yeo’s Chai Chee coffeeshop experienced two break‑ins within ten days in June. The burglar stole more than S$900 from a cai fan stall during the first incident and failed to access the safe in the second. Yeo highlighted the incident to underscore security challenges faced by food‑and‑beverage operators.
- ▪The break‑ins occurred on June 15 and June 25, with a masked man entering through the back door of a neighbouring beef noodle stall.
- ▪During the first break‑in the thief forced open a metal cabinet and stole over S$900 from the Pacific Veg Rice Porridge stall.
- ▪In the second attempt the burglar was unable to open the upgraded safe after switching off a CCTV camera.
- ▪Ben Yeo’s own stalls were unaffected because they do not keep cash on the premises overnight.
- ▪Yeo filed a police report, handed over CCTV footage, and said the incident highlights the broader challenges confronting Singapore’s F&B sector.
