The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) confirmed that it responded to a call for assistance at 78 Airport Boulevard at 3.20pm.

An eyewitness told CNA that the incident happened at basement two and that the staff were alerted to the incident immediately.
The eyewitness added that she could hear the child screaming and the sound of drilling as rescue efforts were carried out.
A spokesperson for Jewel Changi Airport Development said in response to CNA's queries that the boy's foot was brushing along the sides of the escalator when the incident took place.
"The child was assessed by medical personnel onsite, and he will undergo further checks at a hospital," the spokesperson said in a statement.
