According to the reader who prefers to remain anonymous, the accident occurred earlier today (24 Sep) at Tower 1 of Marina Bay Sands. A man is seen crossing the road halfway when the taxi suddenly appeared and ploughed into him. The taxi then hit a pillar before coming to a stop.
Police said that they were alerted to the incident at 1.30pm, and that a 52-year-old taxi driver and a 70-year-old pedestrian were taken to the hospital. The taxi driver and pedestrian were both conscious when taken to the Singapore General Hospital, the police added. Investigations are ongoing.
