MEDAN - Three teenagers in Medan, North Sumatra, were almost killed by residents. The three of them were caught stealing Monstera Adansonii flowers or better known as Janda Bolong flowers on Jalan Halat Gang Cempaka I, Medan Area District.

From the information obtained, the three teenagers had the initials MR (17), FS (16) and R (15). The three teenagers were residents of Jalan Brigjen Katamso Gang Merdeka, Medan Maimun District.

An eye witness, Ray, said that the attempt to steal the Janda Bolong flower took place at around 04.00 WIB. When the residents were on patrol, they saw the teenager carrying a sack into the alley.

"At that time, we were on patrol. We saw their suspicious movements," said Ray, Thursday, December 17.

Feeling safe, they then climbed the fence of the residents' houses and took the slippers of the residents on the terrace.

"After a while, they pulled the flower out of the pot. When it was pulled and was about to take it away, we shouted thieves," said Ray.

From the perpetrator's statement, this theft was maneuvered by MR, who had stolen flowers at least twice before. Meanwhile, FS and R admitted that they only joined MR.

The local Head of the Environment (Kepling) who received the report of this incident immediately contacted the Medan Area Police. However, the flower owner did not want to prolong this problem.

"Finally the three of them were allowed to go home after their families came and apologized," said Ray.
