CLOSED: Is this a fancy Stinkbug?
It's a scarab beetle in the subfamily Cetoniinae; there are several species that can have a color pattern similar to yours. See https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Protaetia_alboguttata.jpg for an example.
It appears to be a nymph of a wheel bug, a general predator on other small arthropods - https://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/10001205.
In the future, please start a new thread rather than hitchhiking on an existing one, especially a closed one such as this.
