PANGANDARAN, Thecuy.com – HL (28) faced disastrous consequences after attempting to seize someone else’s rice thresher.
The resident of Ciganjeng village, Padaherang sub‑district, Pangandaran district, ultimately confronted law enforcement after his theft was uncovered.
Before being handed over to the authorities, HL was pelted by angry locals outraged by his actions.

His escape was intense, forcing him to hide in Cipari Forest to evade the angry mob.
Pangandaran Police Chief AKBP Ikrar Potawari stated that the theft took place on Saturday (17/10/2026) at approximately 01.00 WIB.
The target was a warehouse situated in front of the victim’s residence, Paiman Setiawan, located in Dusun Kawarasan, Sindangwangi village, Padaherang sub‑district.
At that moment, the perpetrator, who was strolling nearby, noticed that the warehouse was empty.
HL seized the opportunity, broke in uninvited, and confiscated a General GX160 model rice thresher.
“The equipment delivers 5.5 HP, operates as a 4‑stroke, 1‑cylinder unit. Following the theft, it was carried out of the warehouse, taken home, and stored at the offender’s residence,” Ikrar reported on Tuesday (10/11/2026).
Instead of returning the misappropriated item, HL tried to turn the stolen goods into cash.
Tasikmalaya reaches the global stage, ranking 18th in regional competitiveness per Oxford Economics; FKS Tasikmalaya enhances waste management in Cibeureum and Purbaratu—what’s the plan.
The equipment was advertised on Facebook as used personal property.
The thief connected with a prospective buyer named Tahyan. After bargaining, they settled on a price of Rp350,000.
The payment was made in cash in front of Iwan’s residence, located in Dusun Balater, Blok Talaga, Sindangwangi village.
However, the scheme to sell stolen goods disguised as personal items was eventually exposed.
Locals grew suspicious of HL and began searching for him.
On Monday (19/10/2026) at roughly 21.00 WIB, HL learned that residents were actively looking for him.
Upon realizing this, the perpetrator fled to Cipari Forest and remained hidden for an entire night.
The escape did not ensure safety. Two days later, on Thursday (22/10/2026) around 10.00 WIB, HL was informed again that the community continued to hunt him.
He then fled to Pasar Block in Ciganjeng village. Nonetheless, locals tracked him down and detained him.
In front of the villagers, HL confessed to stealing the machinery belonging to Paiman Setiawan.
