By Malay Mail Wednesday, 27 May 2026 8:39 AM MYT SINGAPORE, May 27 — A woman has died and a man was seriously injured following a violent incident at a Housing and Development Board (HDB) block in Singapore’s Choa Chu Kang estate last night, according to The Straits Times (ST).Chinese-language daily Lianhe Zaobao reported that the woman was allegedly stabbed near the lift landing on the 12th floor of Block 248 Choa Chu Kang Avenue 2 at about 9pm.The man later fell from the same block and was taken to hospital in an ambulance. The pair were believed to know each other.In a statement cited by ST, the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it received a call for assistance at about 8.55pm.“A person was pronounced dead at the scene by an SCDF paramedic, while another person was taken to the National University Hospital,” the agency said.When ST arrived at the scene at about 10pm, police had cordoned off areas near the block, including the void deck and the 12th floor.Several reddish stains were seen on the ground within the cordoned area, alongside a white cloth marked with red stains.Residents described scenes of panic and confusion following the incident.A student living on the 12th floor told ST she heard a loud bang shortly after 9pm.“It was like a construction sound,” she said.Homemaker Devi, who lives on the sixth floor, said she looked down after hearing the noise and saw a man lying beneath an overturned dustbin.“The bin was covering him, but his head and hands were exposed. He was bleeding,” she said, adding that the man lived on the 12th floor.Another resident, civil servant Johan Jahari, said the injured man was conscious after the fall.“The man was conscious, and crying out in pain,” the 52-year-old said.A woman believed to be the man’s mother was later heard crying: “My son, my son!”Singapore police have yet to issue further details on the case.
