The Australia Today reported that Jaspal Singh lost between A$1,500 and A$1,800 in cash from his shop, while Krunal Patel and Amarjit Bhamra also suffered property damage. Patel raised concerns about police response, saying officers took two to three hours to arrive after being notified at around 7.15am. Bhamra questioned why those who come from other countries and work hard face such crime. The affected traders are now calling for greater police patrols and faster response times to protect small businesses in the area. ## Coverage - hindustantimes.com This story was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
