![]() MRT hits, kills man A man who stretched his head out to see if a train was arriving, was knocked down by one that was approaching the station and died immediately. The incident occurred this morning at Bukit Batok MRT station. By the time the ambulance arrived at the scene, they found the man in a pool of blood. He was proclaimed dead at 6.10am. The deceased is Mr Cai Liang Hua, 59, an employee at PSA International Private Limited (PSA). He leaves behind a wife and son. An eyewitness, Ms Chen, who is in her 40s, told Shin Min Daily News that she was making her way to work from Woodlands and was heading to Jurong East when the train stopped halfway while approaching the station. It did not continue to move. Passengers were rushing to the back of the train and realising that something odd was happening, she followed the crowd to see what the commotion was about. "I saw a man lying face down on the platform. He wasn't breathing," said Ms Chen. Police have classified the cause of death as unnatural and are in the midst of investigations. Look out for more details to come. source: http://news.asiaone.com/News/AsiaOne...06-120040.html I WAS IN THE TRAIN WHEN I SAW THE COMMOTION AT BUKIT BATOK MRT 3:05 PM
