When a renovation contractor showed up at his doorstep requesting for payment on Wednesday morning, this flat owner not only locked the door but took a rather drastic step of climbing out of his window and sitting on the ledge – some 11 floors above the ground.
Describing his shock at seeing the man causing a ruckus at his own home, the renovation contractor said: "I have no idea why he did that, but he was arrested by the police after that." SCDF officers deployed a safety life air pack and rescuers from the Disaster Assistance and Rescue Team were on standby as a precautionary measure, the SCDF added.
