Heavy rain brings tree down on taxi in Tiong Bahru

STOMPer DK was in Tiong Bahru last night when a tree fell onto a taxi in the heavy rain.

Many areas islandwide were also affected yesterday by floods which resulted from the heavy downpour in the afternoon.

Wrote the STOMPer (Nov 12):

"Heavy rain brings down tree.

"It crushed a taxi in Tiong Bahru.

"This happened on Saturday 12 November 2011 at around 8pm.

"Luckily nobody was injured.

"I just heard a loud noise and saw the tree across the street and the red taxi.

"The ambulance and fire brigade arrived immediately.

"It took a while to remove the tree from the street.

"The street was completely blocked."

Kudos to the residents helping to divert the traffic while SCDF was clearing the tree.
