  1. SINGAPORE - Several people were hurt in a slashing incident at a mall in Pasir Ris Street 72, with shoppers and business owners running for cover amid the chaos. The Straits Times understands five people were hurt in the incident, which happened on Dec 20 at around 4pm at the Pasir Ris West Plaza. Several witnesses said the attacker was armed with a knife. A Pasir Ris resident, who was at the mall just after the attack, said he saw five people injured near the Royal Regent, a provision shop inside the mall selling a variety of items like phone products, sandals and bags. Four of the victims were seated on chairs outside the shop, while one was sprawled on the ground. “They were covered in blood, and there were over 30 police officers at the scene, including several armed with rifles,” said the resident, who declined to be named. The Singapore Police Force’s Emergency Response Team (ERT) officers are trained to respond to cases involving firearms and dangerous weapons. ERT officers are equipped with submachine guns, pistols, bullet-resistant vests and ballistic helmets. Another resident, who gave his name as Mr Lee, said the owner of Royal Regent was hurt in the attack. “I saw five people wheeled into ambulances. They were very heavily bandaged, and the injuries look very bad,” added the taxi driver. When ST visited the mall at 6.30pm, police were still at the scene interviewing witnesses. A cordon had been set up around Royal Regent, where socks and shoes were strewn on the floor, with some items covered in blood. An employee working in a drugstore two shops away said she heard a woman scream at around 4pm. The employee, who declined to be named, said she recognised the voice behind the scream as the woman who works in the sundry shop tucked between the drugstore and the provision shop. The employee said she ran, fearing for her safety, and did not see the attacker. According to passers-by, the Royal Regent also provides mobile phone services, including sales and repairs. A plainclothes police officer was seen speaking to a man that other business owners identified as an employee of the shop. His hands were smeared with what appeared to be dried blood. The incident happened at around 4pm at Pasir Ris West Plaza on Dec 20.
  2. Siaolang many many SINGAPORE – A 59-year-old taxi driver and his seven-year-old son were injured when a man hurled a rock at the cab’s windshield on Dec 10 evening. The Singapore Civil Defence Force said it was alerted to the incident near 201 Boon Lay Way at about 7.50pm and two people were taken to National University Hospital. The taxi driver, who wanted to be known only as Mr Chen, told Shin Min Daily News that the attack took place at about 7.20pm. He was taking his son out for dinner at the time, the Chinese-language evening newspaper reported on Dec 11. As he was driving towards Boon Lay Way in Yuan Ching Road, Mr Chen said he saw a man who looked to be in his 50s or 60s trying to stop a private bus by waving his arms. But the bus drove past him. The man seemed to be in a security guard’s uniform and was carrying a backpack, Mr Chen said, adding that the man held an object in his hand. As Mr Chen drove past the man, he suddenly reached out to yank at the taxi door even though Mr Chen gestured that he was not taking passengers, Shin Min reported. The man looked very angry. It seemed like he was shouting and he looked very fierce,” the cabby said. The man then threw the object he was holding at the taxi. Mr Chen said he and his son were shocked by a loud noise and saw that a rock the size of a fist had shattered the rear windshield. Their hands and feet were cut by the broken glass, he added. The man ran away immediately, Shin Min reported. Mr Chen then called the police, who confirmed that a report was lodged and investigations are under way. https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/cabby-and-son-injured-after-man-throws-rock-at-car-windshield-in-jurong
  3. ... If I told you that the occupant walk away from this pile of mass unharmed?! This beyond miracles!!! Ermm anyone wants to guess what model was this? Woman Somehow Walks Away From Folded Car In Shocking Semi-Truck Crash Incredible. No, scratch that. This is beyond incredible. We aren't talking about the severity of the crash, though it's not every day you see a car literally folded in half and crushed by a semi-truck. There was a woman in that car, and she's not dead. In fact, she crawled from the car with hardly any injuries at all. So yeah, what's beyond incredible? Whatever it is, that's what we're dealing with here. This crash happened the morning of November 16, on Interstate 5 in Mount Vernon, north of Seattle in Washington State. According to The Seattle Times, traffic was slowing down on the Skagit River Bridge when this Red Nissan was hit from behind by a semi-truck. There was also a semi in front of the car, and the collision caused the rear of the Nissan to fold over. The semi from behind came to a rest on top of the car. The report says a 46-year-old woman was inside, and looking at the pictures in the Twitter post above would have anyone thinking the worst. Washington State Trooper Rocky Oliphant took the photos and relayed information on Twitter, at first calling it a serious injury accident. But then the semi was lifted from the car, and Oliphant says the woman crawled out under her own power. She reportedly complained of minor pain in her head and ribs, and went to the hospital for further observation. We say it again ... beyond incredible. In his Twitter posts, Oliphant says he's never seen anything like this in 14 years on the job. In The Seattle Times report, he points out the manner in which the car folded could explain how the driver escaped serious injury. The back served as a buffer, protecting the passenger compartment while also giving the semi something of a ramp to slide on. While the crash certainly wasn't lucky, he goes on to call the driver the "luckiest unlucky person." Straight up, this crash is legit spooky. Obviously we're thrilled that the driver escaped with just minor injuries, but we keep coming back to one very basic, haunting question: How? Some would say this steps into the spiritual or supernatural realm, and you know what? Looking closely at these images, we wouldn't disagree. Stay safe out there everyone.
  4. SINGAPORE - Five police officers were hurt on Sunday (Oct 31) while trying to stop a 19-year-old man from driving off in a stolen car, said the police at a press conference on Monday (Nov 1). The police said they had received a report of a stolen car on Oct 30 at about 8.30pm. A 22-year-old man who was providing carpooling services informed the police that his two male passengers had driven off in the vehicle when he left it to buy cigarettes for them. At 2.15am on Sunday, the car driven by the 19-year-old allegedly collided into an unmarked police car and a parked van, before it sped off. The officers were not injured, and the man was arrested about six hours later with the help of police cameras. A stun device was recovered from the driver. Police officers spotted the car at about 9am on Sunday at a carpark in Ang Mo Kio Avenue 6, this time driven by the second man, also 19, who was with a male passenger. When told to step out of the car, he sped off, causing three officers to fall and sustain slight injuries, the police said. Another unmarked police car chased the stolen vehicle. As the car was attempting to evade capture, it hit two cars parked along the road and the pursuing police car, injuring two officers inside. The car was eventually stopped along Lentor Plain. A flick knife was found in the vehicle. The driver and the passenger were arrested. The five officers sustained various injuries, including abrasions and bruises. The two 19-year-old men will be charged in court on Monday, with the offence of theft of motor vehicle with common intention. Three others were arrested for their suspected involvement in the theft. This incident comes after a Traffic Police officer was injured by a reversing car on Oct 28, driven by a man fleeing a police check. The police said they had received a report of a stolen car (above) at about 8.30pm on Oct 30, 2021.PHOTOS: SINGAPORE POLICE FORCE Damage to the unmarked police car at Lentor Plain.

The blast shattered windows in a five-story brownstone building and sent debris into the street, a law enforcement official said. The building is between a church on its eastern side and an apartment building under renovation on its western side.

The house owner's wife was found in a toilet on the second floor, while the male victim was found on the second floor. Two other occupants, the house owner's 80-year-old father and another maid, were on the first floor at the time of the fire. They managed to get out with help from firemen. In a statement, the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said they were alerted to the fire at about 3am at No 6A, Parry Avenue off Yio Chu Kang Road. SCDF dispatched three fire engines, three ambulances, three Red Rhino and six support vehicles.

  20. Two subway trains collided in Seoul on Friday, injuring scores of people but with no immediate report of any fatalities, the emergency services said. "So far, we have a total of 78 injured, all of them lightly," a spokesman for the Seoul emergency services told AFP. One TV news channel put the number of injured at 170. News of the accident broke as the country was still reeling from a ferry disaster on April 16 that left around 300 dead or missing -- most of them schoolchildren -- after the boat capsized and sank. The tragedy triggered widespread public anger and a bout of national soul-searching as to whether the country had sacrificed safety standards in its rush for economic development. The details of Friday's subway accident were not immediately clear, but it appeared that one train had stopped in, or close to, Sangwangsimni station in eastern Seoul when the second train ran into its back.

  21. Five people were taken to hospital after a taxi, which had been involved in a road accident moments before, crashed into an outdoor sitting area of a bar along East Coast Road on Thursday night. The police said a call was received at about 9pm, about an accident between a car and taxi. The ComfortDelgro taxi was then said to have ploughed through a cafe - which was closed at the time - before slamming through a low wall and landing in the crowded outdoor area of Georges Mad Bar & Grill where patrons were seated at tables. The Singapore Civil Defence Force said that the five people were taken conscious to Changi General Hospital. Police are investigating the incident. An eyewitness who only gave his name as Mr Deen, 24, told The Straits Times that he had been drinking with his friends at the bar's outdoor area when he heard two loud bangs. Before he knew it, the taxi crashed through the low wall and came to a stop after hitting a table beside his, which was occupied by about six people. He said: "One guy took most of the hit and he was dragged by the cab. But I don't think he was seriously injured because he could still walk with assistance after that."

Four adults were taken by ambulance to Tan Tock Seng Hospital, and one child was taken to KK Women's and Children's Hospital. All were conscious. It was not immediately clear how serious their injuries were. When The Straits Times arrived at the scene at 11.30pm, several cars including one taxi were seen with their bonnets and rears crumpled.
