BUS CRUSHES WOMANS HEAD

An old woman was run over by a bus this morning at Yishun. The horrific accident saw the bus run over the head of Huang Shu Hong (age 60), killing her on the spot. According to witnesses, an SMRT bus 858 was turning right at the junction when it somehow hit Huang. The bus driver was said to have escaped from the scene after the accident, which happened at about 9.20am at the junction of Yishun Ave 2 and Yishun Central 1. Reporters managed to contact the bus driver, who had apparently escaped back to Malaysia. The man explained that he had been working in Singapore for two years and has never encountered something like this. He said, "I was very scared at the time, my head was a blank and I only thought to get away. I'm coming back to give myself up now." When reporters arrived at the scene of the accident, a large pool of blood, locks of hair and a pair of crushed spectacles were seen lying on the road amidst scattered vegetables and joss sticks. Huang is believed to have been returning home from the nearby market when she was hit by the bus. Huang's husband also arrived shortly after he was informed of the accident by a neighbour. The man broke down upon seeing his wife's remains on the road.
