18YO Jumped from 6 Storey & Crashed Through Roof of Sheltered Walkway in Tampines After a Quarrel with GF

Love can drive you into doing some really incredible things.

Some were inspiring, like the Malaysians who went to Woodlands Waterfront Park to catch a glimpse of their loved ones on the other side of the straits.

While others, not so much.

18YO Jumped from 6 Storey & Crashed Through Sheltered Walkway in Tampines After a Quarrel with GF

On 27 Dec 2020, the residents staying along Tampines Street 12 heard a loud argument between a male and a female.

The argument went on for five minutes before a teenage boy was seen crashing through the roof of a sheltered walkway.

The police and SCDF were alerted immediately.

Guy Had Refused To Break Up With Girl

According to AsiaOne, the teenage boy had gone to the HDB block with friends to speak to his girlfriend.

She had allegedly asked him for a breakup, to which he refused.

The pair met at the staircase landing on the sixth storey of the building to talk.

Then, the tragedy happened.

It was also reported that a pair of black shoes and a paper bag was left at the staircase landing.

Conveyed To Hospital Conscious

The teenage boy was conscious after he landed on the first floor.

An eyewitness who was there said that the teenage boy could nod to the police’s questions when they had arrived.

The SPF also said that they have sent the boy to Changi General Hospital in a conscious state.

Police investigations are ongoing for the incident.

Thankfully, this didn’t end up like the story of Sam Cheung, the ex-boyfriend of Miss Hong Kong 2020 contestant Jessica Liu, which you can read about here.
