A 33 year old man, believed to be a food delivery man, has been arrested by the police after knocking down an elderly woman at a Bukit Batok HDB void deck. The woman, a 65 year old who was not named, was checking her letterbox when the man knocked her down with his e-scooter on Friday night.

The HSA has warned the public not to buy or consume two products promoted in Malaysia as traditional Chinese medicine. This comes after two elderly women fell ill after taking them. One of the woman, who is in her 70s, was even warded in the ICU after experiencing severe breathing difficulty.

A 67 year old woman was killed on Wednesday morning after being knocked down by a taxi near the Ayer Rajah Food Centre. The accident happened around 6:26 am along West Coast Drive towards West Coast Road.

A wheelchair bound elderly woman, who has been going to a Bedok church for the past two years, was found at the bottom of a ramp at the Bedok Lutheran Church, lying face down in a heap. 83 year old Madam Neo Ng Tee was found with her face covered in blood, two of her front teeth broken and the wheelchair on top of her. She suffered injuries to the left side of her face and can hardly open her eyes. She also has abrasions all over her body. Madam Neo is now in the high dependency ward at Changi General Hospital (CGH). It was unclear how she had fallen off her wheelchair at the foot of the ramp.

As I drove off she said she couldn't lift her arms when she woke up in the morning. I saw from the rear mirror she had tears in her eyes. I suspected she had a mild stroke. She instructed me to visit the ATM for her to draw money to pay for the taxi fare. I asked her if she had any children, she said she had one son who went to work. I got angry and started to lecture her. I said "your son should take you to the hospital in an ambulance. What happens if you fell sick in my taxi? I cannot save you". I drove as fast as i could to reach TTSH but she was rather concerned about paying for the taxi fare, instead of her own well-being.

A 92 year old woman who has been living alone for years was found dead in her flat at Circuit Road last night. There was no fire but burn marks could be seen in the kitchen. People also heard an explosion that might have been due to a gas stove. The police are still investigating. She was said to be healthy and spotted just that morning when she was on the way to buy some groceries. #RIP

She looked like any other cardboard collector on the street, malnourished, hunched and scrawny. She too was pushing a cargo trolley along the outer corridors of the Bugis Junction with a pink paper basket with lots of her barang barang. Just as like every other elderly scavenging for paper boxes, they all had a story to tell.

An elderly woman had her life savings wiped out by a home scam in Johor, all because she was approached by a "property agent" in Malaysia and believed that investing in a property there would bring her additional wealth.

32-year-old Jaimah Hapit Said was sentenced to 40 months jail for gagging, strangling and threatening her employer's elderly mother and robbing her of cash and jewellery worth $9,400 on 26 September this year.
