Driver arrested after woman nearly gets crushed underneath ezbuy lorry in Punggol dispute
A dramatic scene unfolded in Punggol Central on April 17 when a woman fell to the ground and was nearly run over by a lorry in a dispute that reportedly began after the vehicle knocked into a motorcycle.
In a video posted on TikTok, two men and a woman can be seen trying to stop the lorry from moving off.
Despite their efforts, the ezbuy lorry continues moving, and the woman falls to the ground, narrowly escaping getting run over.
One of the men, holding a motorcycle helmet, is then seen kicking the lorry and pushing against it in a desperate attempt to make it stop.
According to the video's caption, the lorry had allegedly hit a motorcycle and the driver refused to take responsibility.
In response to a Stomp query, the police said they received a call for assistance at Block 166A Punggol Central at 6.10pm.
"The 54-year-old woman was conveyed conscious to the hospital," a police spokesperson said.
"A 60-year-old man was subsequently arrested for rash act causing hurt and is also being investigated for the offence of dangerous driving."
Police investigations are ongoing.
