SINGAPORE - A boy was pinned under an SMRT bus while he was crossing the road in Choa Chu Kang on Thursday (May 24).
The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it was alerted to a road traffic accident in Choa Chu Kang Avenue 5 at about 9am.
SCDF said that it used lifting equipment to rescue a boy who was trapped under a bus.
The Straits Times understands that the boy, who is around six years old, was found under the rear wheel of the bus.
He sustained multiple, serious injuries and was taken unconscious to National University Hospital.
Immigration consultant Charlie Lim told ST that he was driving out of the carpark when he saw the accident in front of Block 486.
"The boy was extracted from below the bus and sent up the ambulance," said Mr Lim, 44. "There was a lot of blood flowing under the bus."
He added that the boy's mother was seen standing next to the bus and appeared to be in a state of shock as she was being comforted by a group of friends and police officers.
"I asked around and was told that the boy was playing with a mobility device when crossing the road," he added.
SMRT told commuters at 10.15am via its SMRT Connect app that bus service 983 will skip three bus stops along Choa Chu Kang Avenue 5 and 6 due to an accident.
ST has contacted the police and SMRT for more information.

How does that make a difference? We all bleed red blood.
Hes just an innocent kid. Just like when u were 6 yrs old.
Yes but he wasn't running amok like a spoilt brat.
On a mobility device.
Did I say anything besides his race?
It is a phone or e bike?
Nowadays many people look down at their phone while crossing road which is very dangerous.
You are responsible for your life, not others who will look after your life.
I was a 6 years old kid when I was knocked down by a car and flew a couple of metres. Thankfully, the car wasn't speeding and I did not break any bones. Jusy scratches and bruises all over. If I didn't survive that ordeal, I wouldn't be around here to have my entertainment with @ginfreely ... Lol
However, once my parents knew that I had no major life threatening injuries from the doctors at the then Toa Payoh Hospital, the lecturing and scolding commenced ... jibuy!!!
bus is 12m long. under rear wheels means travelled at least 6m before coming to full stop not counting distance before impact. typical bus also at least 4 tonne. meaning at least 1 tonne crushing over twice, once by front once by rear wheels. bus needs to be check how fast it was travelling also.
Yes. Indian parenting makes a difference.
