SINGAPORE: A sabotage attempt marred the Aviva Ironman Singapore triathlon on Sunday.

 

While the cycling leg of the race was going on, some metal tacks were scattered on the road near the Keppel Flyover.

 

One witness told Channel NewsAsia about 30 to 40 participants had their bike tyres punctured by the tacks and had to drop out of the triathlon as a result.
