SINGAPORE – A worker died after a construction crane collapsed at a worksite in Novena on Monday (Nov 4).
Another injured worker was taken to Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH).
The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it received a call for help at a construction site in Jalan Tan Tock Seng at about 8.50am.
