Man, 22, allegedly reversed into petrol station attendant causing death, drove without valid licence while on drugs
The man abandoned his vehicle and fled the scene together with a female passenger.
On August 8, a 22-year-old man was charged with eight offenses after allegedly causing the death of a petrol station attendant and driving without a valid license, according to a report by the Singapore Police Force (SPF). The incident occurred around 3:55 am on August 6 when Png reversed into the attendant at a petrol station along Upper Changi Road North.
The attendant, who was refueling Png's vehicle, fell and hit his head on the open car door, resulting in his death the following day. Png, along with a female passenger, fled the scene without stopping to help. The deregistered vehicle was subsequently seized by the Traffic Police, and the suspected drug-related offenses were referred to the Central Narcotics Bureau.
The SPF warned the public about the dangers of deregistered vehicles and urged them to report any suspicious cases.
