SINGAPORE \u2013 Two people were killed after a multi-vehicle accident late on Oct 29 in Tampines. A search is under way for two others who had fled the scene before the authorities arrived.<\/p>\n
In a media reply on Oct 30, the police and the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said they were alerted to an accident involving two cars and a motorcycle in Tampines Avenue 12 at around 10.35pm the day before.<\/p>\n
A 24-year-old male motorcyclist and his 24-year-old female pillion rider were taken unconscious to the hospital, where they subsequently died because of their injuries.<\/p>\n
The police added that a 25-year-old female driver of one of the cars involved was taken conscious to the hospital.<\/p>\n
SCDF, in an earlier reply, said two people were taken to Changi General Hospital while two others were taken to Sengkang General Hospital.<\/p>\n
The Straits Times has contacted SCDF and the police for further clarification.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, a search is under way for the male driver and the female passenger of the second car, who were not at the scene when police officers arrived.<\/p>\n
Preliminary probes revealed that the pair had left the scene after the accident, the police said.<\/p>\n
