Firefighters and rescuers from the elite Disaster Assistance and Rescue Team took two hours to free a person’s arm, which was stuck in a kitchen drain pipe in a Housing Board flat in Lakeside on Nov 27.
In a Facebook post on the same day, the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it responded to a call at Block 338A Tah Ching Road at about 1.35pm.
“Upon SCDF’s arrival, a person was found in a flat with his entire left arm trapped in a drain pipe under the kitchen sink,” it said in the post.
