In a surprising incident that took place on December 9, at the Rail Mall’s Toast Box located in Upper Bukit Timah, a potentially dangerous situation unfolded as a ceiling top panel suddenly dropped.
Fortunately, no injuries were reported, as quick-thinking patrons swiftly moved away from the affected area.
Witnesses at the scene recounted the incident, expressing relief that everyone managed to avoid harm as they evacuated the vicinity when the ceiling panel fell.
However, the unexpected turn of events took a bizarre twist as a python emerged from a hole in the ceiling.
The snake, whose origin remains unknown, made its appearance at the ceiling top area, adding an element of perplexity to the already unusual situation.
It is yet to be determined how the snake ended up in the ceiling of the Rail Mall’s Toast Box.
In response to the incident, the management of the establishment took immediate action. The shop was temporarily closed to ensure the safety of patrons and staff.
Authorities were promptly notified, and upon their arrival, diners and other individuals present were instructed to leave the premises.
As a precautionary measure, a “professional snake catcher” was called in to handle the situation safely and ensure the secure removal of the python from the premises.
The incident caused a temporary disruption at the Rail Mall’s Toast Box, prompting discussions among locals about the need for enhanced safety measures in public spaces.
