On 14 Dec (Sat), police received a report of an assault at Nanyang Technological University (NTU).

Police cars were seen around the area outside the School of Art, Design and Media (ADM).

On 15 Dec (Sun), NTU Student Union posted an Instagram story warning those at campus to stay safe as there were fugitives on the run.

The message reminds everyone in NTU at present to remain indoors.

Other details unconfirmed, public advised not to speculate on causes

There are several rumours floating around social media and WhatsApp group chats.

We do not advise members of the public to spread these around and to wait for a verified source instead.

It has only been confirmed that an assault has taken place, and that the army has been deployed to the NTU campus.

Those entering and leaving campus are being questioned. They are advised to call 999 if they see anything suspicious, according to several verified sources.

From mothership

According to several hall residents in NTU, loud noises were also heard at around midnight.

The noise was described as sounding like a “shotgun”.

Cars exiting NTU premises were also reportedly searched.

Mothership understands that a message was sent and circulated among some NTU students urging everyone who were “currently in NTU to stay indoors”.

This was due to a “recent reported case of assault” that took place on campus.

Any official  update?

Why no report on CNA?

The news could be withhold / blocked for good reasons, so as not to reveal too much information facilitating the next course of action by the criminal(s) in action.

Police investigating NTU student for false information over alleged assault

SINGAPORE - A 19-year-old student of  the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) is being investigated for providing false information after they were alerted to a case of an alleged assault.  

In a statement on Sunday (Dec 15), the police said that investigations subsequently revealed that the student had provided false information to the police and the alleged assault did not occur.

"The police are investigating her for providing false information," the statement said.

"The police would like to urge members of the public to refrain from commenting or speculating on the case so as to avoid causing unnecessary alarm."

Earlier, the students' union had urged those on campus to stay indoors after what they understood to be a reported case of assault.

In an Instagram story posted by the NTU Student's Union page at about 2am on Sunday, the union said: "NTUSU understands that there has been a recent reported case of assault that happened on campus. Those that were involved are currently aiding the police on their ongoing investigation.

"For your own safety and to better aid the ongoing investigations, we urge everyone who is currently in NTU to stay indoors," the post read.

Students were also urged to "look out for one another" and dial campus security or the police if they saw anything suspicious.

In a tweet at about 8.45am, the university assured students that "there is no cause of concern for their safety on campus", and that it was working with the police.

"An official statement would be released later today," it said.

student must have spun one hell of a story to bring in gurkhas and army. Probably forgot to mention aliens or MIB would be on the scene too.
