A four-year-old and a 70-year-old were among five passengers who were conveyed conscious to the hospital following an accident on the Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway (KPE).

The accident between a car and a lorry happened on Aug. 9, along the KPE near Sims Way exit.

A video posted to Facebook showed the wreckage of the aftermath, and one man with his leg stuck beneath the dashboard.

The police were alerted to it at around 2:35pm, the Singapore Police Force told Mothership.

In response to Mothership's queries, the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said that a person was found trapped in the driver's seat of a pick-up truck upon their arrival.

SCDF personnel rescued the person using hydraulic rescue equipment.

Other than the four-year-old, two other children were sent to KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital, SCDF's statement shared.

Four adults were sent to Tan Tock Seng Hospital, including a 44-year-old male car driver and a 35-year-old male lorry driver.

Police investigations are ongoing.
