A suspicious item was found on the upper deck of the multi-storey car park in Eunos on Monday morning (July 27), prompting a response from the police and the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF).<\/p>\n
Marine Parade-Braddell Heights MP for the Geylang Serai division, Diana Pang, shared details of the incident in a Facebook post later that day.<\/p>\n
She said that an empty fuel tank was discovered at the multi-storey car park at Block 39 Eunos Crescent.<\/p>\n
Although the tank contained no liquid fuel, residual fuel vapours remained inside and could have posed a potential fire or explosion risk if it were exposed to an ignition source and not reported earlier, Pang said.<\/p>\n
“Investigations are ongoing, and the relevant agencies are looking into the incident,” she added.<\/p>\n
“Preliminary findings suggest that it may be related to the illegal storage or distribution of diesel or petrol.”<\/p>\n
Thanking the police and SCDF for their swift response and ongoing investigations, Pang also took the opportunity to remind residents to remain vigilant.<\/p>\n
“If you notice lorries transporting fuel containers, the transfer of fuel in the car park, or any other suspicious or unusual activities, please report them to the Police immediately,” she encouraged.<\/p>\n
“Your timely reporting can help prevent potential safety hazards and keep our neighbourhood safe.”<\/p>\n
