SINGAPORE: A truck mounted an earth bank at Grange Road on Thursday afternoon (Nov 16).

The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it was alerted to the accident at about 4.40pm and dispatched an ambulance.

A man was assessed to have minor injuries by SCDF paramedics but refused to be taken to hospital, SCDF added.

According to a passerby who declined to be identified, the truck seemed to have suffered a punctured tyre, causing it to lose control.

Photos showed the vehicle on top of an earth bank by the side of the road, separated from the road by concrete barriers.
