What Happened?

A man believed to be the driver of the vehicle that caught on fire was unable to start his vehicle.

The vehicle subsequently caught on fire at the open-air carpark of Block 216 Petir Road in Bukit Panjang in the early morning of July 3.

The fire engulfed the vehicle, along with two other cars and a van parked nearby it. 

The driver of the vehicle managed to escape from his vehicle.

However, he was screaming in pain as the fire engulfed him in flames.

Shortly after, the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) arrived at the location to provide assistance to the injured man and extinguish the fire.
