A WOMAN who bungled one robbery, then stole $15 from another person at knifepoint minutes later, was sentenced to 31/2 years' jail yesterday.

Song Kim Ing, 27, admitted in a district court to the crime spree, which took place at a Henderson Road block of flats on Nov 1 this year.

Assistant Public Prosecutor Evelyn Jasmine Lee said Song initially approached Mr Mohamad Rafi Shahul Hameed, 36, on the 18th floor of the block that evening with a knife and tried to rob him.
