[edit] 2010 accident
A man tripped and fell at Keat Hong LRT Station at 6.57 pm on May 10, 2010, causing the train service to be disrupted.
The man's left hand was trapped between the train and platform. SCDF officers used a cutter and spreader to rescue him.
He suffered abrasion on his arm and legs and was sent to the National University Hospital. Normal LRT service resumed after more than an hour. SMRT said about 860 commuters were affected by the disruption.[1]
