Suspect nabbed over death of man found unconscious in Clementi

The victim was taken to hospital where he died, the police said. Early investigations suggest the two men knew each other.

The police said they received a call for help at 5pm about an incident in Clementi Avenue 4. The suspect was arrested at the scene, they added.

When The Straits Times arrived at Block 311B at around 7.30pm, Holland-Bukit Timah GRC MP Sim Ann was seen comforting an elderly man and woman, who were crying.

In video footage of the incident recorded by residents and seen by ST, the suspect is seen chasing the victim to the foot of Block 311B.

The victim appears to trip over a drain cover and falls, and the suspect seems to stab him repeatedly with a small object.
