SINGAPORE: A high-speed chase involving a lorry believed to be stolen resulted in a crash along the Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE) towards Tuas, near Alexandra Road.
Police said they received a call at just past 11am on Thursday about a vehicle being stolen from Ubi Road 3.
The lorry was spotted shortly after, along Upper Changi Road North towards Changi Prison.
Officers gave chase in their vehicle but the driver refused to stop.
The chase ended at 11.50am when the lorry crashed into several vehicles along the AYE, trapping the driver in his seat.
Singapore Civil Defence Force officers used a hydraulic spreader to free the lorry driver, a man in his 30s, within 15 minutes.
The man has been arrested and sent to Changi General Hospital.
Investigations are ongoing.
