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.
