A video of a wild boar charging at a person and then crashing head first into a glass door at Sengkang MRT station has been posted on Instagram Stories.

The three-second video was then reposted on Facebook on Saturday, June 20.

It showed a person successfully dodging the wild boar.

Door damaged

It is not known when the incident took place, but a check on the damaged exit at Sengkang MRT station on early Sunday June 21 morning showed that one door has been cordoned off and is no longer in use.

It is also not known where the wild boar went to after crashing into the door.

The entrance leads to the North East Line MRT station on the left and the bus depot on the right.

The video had shown what appeared to be glass fragments on the ground.

The caption on the video explained the appearance of the love emojis filter:

ok lol fk i use wrong filter bc i was nervous wtf it stared at me then spoil the door HAHA I could have been a pancake RN

The location where the person shot the video is directly outside the Cup Walker beverage stall.

It is also not known how the wild boar ended up at an area with high human traffic.

The empty field beside the MRT station is currently used to house the Sengkang Grand Residences showroom.

Mothership.sg has contacted SBS Transit for comment.

Another wild boar video

On the same day footage of the wild boar crashing into the glass door was put up, another video of a wild boar filmed running in the Compassvale estate in Sengkang also appeared on Facebook.

The video was put up on June 20 as well, and it could be of the same wild boar that crashed into Sengkang MRT station.

For the wild boar to end up at Sengkang MRT station though, it must have travelled at least a few kilometres from the nearest forested area in Anchorvale, Fernvale or Punggol.
