The full-length mirror that fell and killed an 18-month-old girl inside a fashion store at Jewel Changi Airport on Friday was reportedly knocked over by other children who were playing at that time.

The toddler who died has been identified as Lai Jiaxin.

Chinese paper Lianhe Wanbao reported that the child was with her family and a few other relatives when the incident occurred.

The report said a few other children had knocked down the full-length, standalone mirror while playing in the Urban Revivo store.

The mirror fell on the toddler who was standing in front of it.

The toddler was conveyed unconscious to Changi General Hospital, where she was subsequently pronounced dead, police said.

Closed-circuit television (CCTV) captured the incident but the video was not released.

The toddler was cremated on Sunday morning, Aug. 25.

The Straits Times reported that prayers were conducted at the Urban Revivo store at about 6am.

The child's body was cremated at about 8.45am.
