Police said in a statement on Saturday that they received a call for assistance at 78 Airport Boulevard on Friday. The Singapore Civil Defence Force, which also came to the scene, said it happened at around 12.33p.m.

A spokesperson from Jewel said a full-length mirror had fallen and staff who were on site had quickly administered first aid on the child as they waited for paramedics to arrive.

The girl was conveyed unconscious to Changi General Hospital, where she was subsequently pronounced dead.

This article is useless. It does not say where and how a full length mirror could have come to fall on the toddler. So many clothes department stores have full length mirrors how come never heard of one that fall and kill someone before? Very strange is it not? :cautious:

Maybe the contractor used cheap glue to stick the wall mirror..Can't imagine how much the compensation gonna be?
Agreed. This is workmanship issue.
Normally will use maxbond for mirror.
No way to bring mirror down except to hack it.
Very likely sub-contractors used white glue instead which may not be strong enough to withstand weight of full length mirror.

Sure kana sued from main con to sub cons.
