2 shophouses partially collapse at Syed Alwi Road, 6 injured

Two shophouses partially collapsed at Syed Alwi Road in the early hours of Tuesday (8 Oct).

According to a Facebook post by the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF), the team was alerted to the incident at 1.30am.

"Upon arrival, SCDF immediately commenced a search of the area to ascertain if anyone was trapped under the debris. Two search dogs and a drone were also deployed to augment the search operation," they wrote.

As passersby reported hearing a loud blast, a firefighting machine was deployed as a precautionary measure, to disperse any potential build up of flammable gases using its water mist spray function.

Firefighters rescued a victim who was trapped on the second storey of the affected shophouse at 84 Syed Alwi Road using a ladder.

No one was found trapped under the debris, said SCDF.

SCDF shared, "Two persons were assessed by paramedics for minor injuries and conveyed to Singapore General Hospital and Tan Tock Seng Hospital. Four other persons were also assessed for minor injuries but they declined to be sent to the hospital."

CNA reported that, according to the Building and Construction Authority, the cause of the incident is "suspected" to be a gas explosion.

There's one quite famous pig organ soup that was forced to shift out due to building issue. I think was also at the same road, but at Jln Besar corner.
