While waiting for a private-hire vehicle under her HDB block, this Bishan resident was attacked from behind last Sunday in broad daylight.A resident of Block 110 Bishan Street 12 for more than 20 years, the furious retiree shared it was the first time such a "vicious and unprovoked attack" happened to her.
Leong, who has been living in Bishan for more than 30 years, said: "What to do? We can't do anything." Still reeling from the shock after being attacked, Ng told AsiaOne that she has tried to warn passers-by in the area to be careful of the crows. These birds are a "invasive species" here and NParks have been monitoring the area around Block 110 Bishan Street 12 for crow nests since Feb 7, Dr Adrian Loo, group director of wildlife management, shared.
