Singapore: A 65-year-old grandma was taken to hospital due to a cyclist knock into her outside a condominium in Pasir Ris on May 14, 2017, what worst is during that time she was carrying her 13 month-old grandchild.
The poor toddler who just learned how to walk broke her right leg in an article published by Lianhe Wanbao on Saturday (May 27, 2017).
The incident occurred along Pasir Ris Drive 3 at around 1 pm on May 14, 2017.
The Singapore Civil Defence Force received a call for ambulance assistance at about 1.11 pm and took one person to Changi General Hospital.
Madam Lin Zhenghua’s husband, Mr Xia Yuzhang, told the reporter that they just exited the condominium’s gate and were walking toward the bus stop when the accident happened.
“I saw my wife hit by a cyclist, then the other two bicycles behind also knocked into the first one.” said Mr Xia
Madam Lin was still shaken by the incident.
“Luckily I was holding onto my grandchild’s hand, if not it would be unthinkable if her head hit the ground,” she said.
Madam Lin fainted shortly.
Passers-by helped her to the bus stop nearby, where she would be out of the path of pedestrians.
She woke up in Changi General Hospital and stayed there for two days before she was discharged.
Initially, they did not know their grandchild was hurt, until they found that she would not stop crying. She was taken to the hospital for a check-up that day and doctors found that her right leg was broken.
While the grandparents were grateful that the toddler, who had just learned how to walk, did not suffer more severe injuries, they were unhappy that the cyclists “did not apologize”.
However, the parents of the teenager who knock into Madam Lin visited them in the hospital.
