A video emerged online showing an accident between a motorcyclist and a truck, with the rider being smashed into the cars around him and onto the road.
The truck had failed to stop and ran the motorcyclist over from behind.
However, the motorcyclist incredibly got up as though nothing happened and walked away, presumably to confront the truck driver, as passers-by came to help him.
The incident happened at the junction of Woodlands Road and Sungei Kadut Avenue, on 6 September at around 1.48pm.
A photo emerged online showing a group of paikias gathering in a group of 9 to flash gang signs.
They were also seen not wearing their masks, with one of them commenting on the photo: “Hahaha. Thanks eh boii for the free publicity…”

*Update as of 09/09/2021 12.30am*: I have witnesses said that they have happened to see my dad being treated by the medic at 11.50am-12.10pm. The location that has happened is just before the bus stop of Bugis Cube, and before the left turn of Liang Seah Street. Please let me have more information as that location the bus shouldn’t be travelling so fast as they are reaching the traffic light where there is heavy human traffics crossing that road. That ebrake shouldn’t have caused such a serious injury. We have also confirmed that it is bus 175. Appreciate for more information! Thank you!
I will like to look for witnesses for my dad accident that has happened in the bus today 08/09/2021. He was on his way back home at Bugis from NKF Dialysis Centre – Sakyadhita at Upper Boon Keng Road and he is expected to alight at Bugis Cube.
We have no information of the accident at all as we were given bits and pieces of the information only. We do not know what is the bus number. We only knew it was because the bus driver has done an e-brake which resulted in him falling so badly. But these injury doesn’t seem like a normal fall.
I have checked the route and suspected it is bus 175. We also only knew that the accident has happened at along North Bridge Road. We have received the call from hospital at 12.50pm. I have also called the dialysis centre and understand that he has left the place at 11.20am. Suspected timing that has happened should be about 11.30am-12.45pm.
Please help to share this post and do let me know if there is any witnesses that could share with us what has really happened. We totally have no clue what has happened and we do not know how he has fell. Hospital, traffic police and SBS bus has all asked us to wait and wait. Nobody wants to give us the full information. But the next few hours are very critical for us and we would really like to find out what has happened.
My dad has suffered a head injury which resulted in bleeding in his brain, and rib cage has fractured which also resulted some punctured in his lung, and he has a cut on his right eyebrow which they have done many stitches there. There were also hands fractured and neck fractured and also suspected shoulder fractured. His blood pressure is very high now and due to the bleeding in the brain, he is in a very confused state. He do not recognise me at all. He is also not alert at all now.
We are very worried about our dad. Please help us also do a prayer for my dad. We hope he can survive this. The next few hours are very critical. Please give us some of your time to do a prayer for my dad. Thank you and we are really grateful for all of your prayers.
Please help me share this post around in hope to look for witness.
A 14 y.o xmm testified in court on 8 Sep about an alleged incident where she was molested by a Grab Driver back in 2017.
She was 10 when the alleged incident happened between her and Lom Mun Hoi, 47.
Lom was the driver assigned to her Grab booking on August 25, 2017.
Three charges of molestation from two seperate incidents which he contested were brought against him, with the first being an incident where he allegedly touched the groin areas of a then 7 y.o girl on June 14, 2017 in his car at Tampines Mall.
What happened
Lom used his left hand to stroke the girl’s right knee two times, once being 10 seconds and the second time being abit longer when the car came to a halt at a red light even when she was seated at the back.
He also allegedly asked the girl to be his Facebook friend and gave her life advice on her family’s situation and also gave her three sweets.
The girl had said that she is “generally awkward” with older people and was scared that Lom would do something else.
She left the sweets in a lift while going up to her friend’s place as she was wary of them and scared they contained poison.
Her mother eventually found out and made a report to Grab and also a police report about 10 days later, citing that she was busy as a single working mother and did not want her daughter to be affected.
She also said that the girl is now more wary and afraid of “guys” and stays home more.
The case will resume its hearing in November and if convicted of molesting a minor under 14, Lom will possibly receive a jail term of up to five years, get fined and caned or any of the three combinations.
Ministry of Health (MOH), said that updates on Covid-19 situation will be given only once a day instead of the current twice or more a day.
This is because as Singapore has one of the highest vaccinated rates in the world at 81%, measures are being adjusted to transit into a Covid-19 resilient nation.
MOH will therefore no longer give a detailed immunisation progress report and will not state the number of linked and unlinked cases a day.
It will however track those patients who are hospitalised with severe illnesses and those in ICU to manage the stress of the country’s hospitals.
Information of large clusters and upcoming ones would still be provided so that the public can decide themselves if they want to avoid affected places and plan their activities.
