A man was startled when he accidentally kicked what appeared to be faeces and mud at Outram Park MRT station on Oct 19.<\/p>\n
Stomper Daniel<\/strong> was at the station at around 8.45pm when he nearly stepped on the mess.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s faeces and not just mud,\u201d said the Stomper, who shared photos showing a black substance and traces of soil on the ground. \u201cIt smelled really bad<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n Daniel was unsure whether the faeces were from a person or animal, or how long the mess had been there.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was right in front of the station agent\u2019s office and they had no idea it was there until I pointed it out after kicking it accidentally,\u201d he recounted.<\/p>\n The Stomper said the mess consisted of faeces and mud.<\/p>\n PHOTO: STOMP<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n The Stomper said he was confused by the incident, adding: \u201cThis sort of thing happens all the time in places like New York or San Francisco or Los Angeles, but I\u2019ve never had it happen in Singapore<\/a>… Let alone in a controlled and CCTV-monitored environment like Outram Park MRT station.\u201d<\/p>\n According to Daniel, station employees covered the mess with newspapers and put up yellow \u2018Wet Floor\u2019 signs until cleaning staff arrived to clean it up.<\/p>\n \u201cMRT staff had a couple seconds of incredulity as they registered what actually it was,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n Daniel added that the mess was \u201cnot super hard\u201d to clean off his footwear upon reaching home, though he had to use soap and water.<\/p>\n \u201cMore annoying was walking home from the incident and trying not to further spread it around with each step,\u201d he told Stomp on Oct 23.<\/p>\n
