29-year-old man found motionless at foot of Marsiling block, pronounced dead by paramedic

A man was found lying motionless in the grass at the foot of a Marsiling block on Friday morning (Sept 15).

Stomper Baba shared photos of the man and a police tent near Block 37 Marsiling Drive at 8.34am.

Nearby were remnants of burnt offerings for the Hungry Ghost Festival.

In response to a Stomp query, the police said they were alerted to a case of fall from height at the block at about 7am.

"A 29-year-old man was found motionless at the foot of the said block and was pronounced dead at the scene by an SCDF paramedic," said the police.

Based on preliminary investigations, the police do not suspect foul play. Investigations are ongoing.
