A young man in black was seen standing nearby, potentially calling for an ambulance or alerting authorities.
Two SMRT staff members were present to manage the situation and keep onlookers at a safe distance.
Mr Chen (name transliterated from Mandarin), a 31-year-old yoga instructor, told Shin Min Daily News that paramedics arrived around 8.45pm.
He noted that the man was in pain but conscious and communicating with the medical personnel.
