Son seeks witnesses near accident site
On Sunday (27 Jun), the 81-year-old’s son was seen standing along a park connector network in Bishan, appealing for witnesses of the accident.
The large sign reads that he is appealing for eyewitnesses of the bicycle crash that happened on Saturday (5 Jun) to come forward with information.
He also held another handwritten sign that gave a more detailed account of what happened.
According to the sign, the accident occurred between 9.30-10.30am that day at the running track behind Kuo Chuan Presbyterian Secondary School.
The 81-year-old was wearing a bright orange polo shirt at that time.
The family still requires more information in order to make a police report on the accident.
Elderly man still hospitalised
On 17 Jun, the elderly man’s daughter also made an urgent appeal for eyewitnesses on Facebook.
In her post, she stated that her dad was riding his bicycle slowly, but another cyclist, who appeared to be a Chinese man, collided with him when turning right.
The accident caused a fracture near the 81-year-old’s pelvis, and he is unable to walk.
According to current updates, the man is currently still hospitalised.
Do reach out to the family if you have information
We can’t imagine how difficult it is for the family to spend weeks searching for witnesses while caring for their father in hospital.
Hopefully, their efforts will yield more results as they continue to appeal for eyewitnesses to come forward.
So, if you happen to have been in the area on 5 Jun and have any information, do reach out to the family via the mobile number here.
MS News also wishes the elderly man a speedy recovery.
