SINGAPORE: Parts of the ceiling in the basement of Lucky Plaza collapsed on Monday (Apr 6).
A security guard told CNA that small pieces of debris began falling from the ceiling at about 7.45am, prompting them to quickly cordon off the area.
He added that about an hour later, “bigger parts” of the ceiling came down.
When CNA arrived at the mall at 1.25pm, the area where the ceiling had collapsed at the first basement level had been covered with translucent sheeting, and a cordon was in place around the area.
A second cordon had also been set up at the top of the stairs on the first floor.
At least two security guards were stationed around the area.
