SINGAPORE- A man caused a scare on Sunday by sitting in the middle of a busy road, oblivious to the cars which zoomed past.
The man, believed to be suffering from work-related stress, sat in the middle of the road near Geylang Lorong 27. He was also yelling and wandering on the road, said Mr Sakib Noori, who took a video of the dangerous act.
"A man on a bicycle stopped behind this man and tried to direct traffic away from him, but he couldn't because the man kept moving," said Mr Sakib, a 22-year-old student who witnessed the incident from the balcony of a third-floor condominium unit.
Mr Sakib said that the man appeared drunk.
But the police, who received a call for assistance at about 7.15pm, said he was not drunk. The man was escorted to safety, and no further action was taken, a police spokesman said.
