SINGAPORE: A 56-year-old woman died on Friday morning (27 June) after falling from a block of flats at Clementi Avenue 3.

The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it received a call for assistance at around 10:50am, reporting that someone had fallen from a building at Block 441A. Paramedics who arrived at the scene pronounced the woman dead.

When police officers reached the location, they found the woman lying motionless on the ground floor. The area, which included the adjacent commercial pedestrian walkway, was quickly cordoned off.

Photographs provided to 8World showed a large section of the walkway sealed with police tape as crowds gathered nearby.

Eyewitnesses reported seeing officers conducting inquiries and speaking to bystanders as paramedics worked behind the cordon.

The police has since confirmed they received a report in the morning about a person requiring assistance at the block. Preliminary investigations have ruled out foul play.

Investigations are ongoing.

If you or someone you know is struggling with emotional or mental health issues, help is available.
