SINGAPORE: A Singaporean man was killed after being
hit by a taxi in Kallang early Wednesday.
Investigations are still ongoing, but a source has identified the
victim as Oh Swee Tian, a resident of Block 3B in Upper Boon Keng
Road.
It was not clear whether the victim was crossing the street when
the taxi spun off the road and hit him.
The service road, which connects blocks 3B and 3C, is reportedly a
blind spot for drivers and witnesses said residents have earlier
raised the issue with the town council.
Police said the victim was pronounced dead by a paramedic at about
5.40am.
