SINGAPORE - A cement mixer truck was turning into Sheares Avenue on Sunday afternoon (Feb 4), when its cement drum came loose and rolled onto the road.

The police said they were alerted to the accident at around 12.40pm.

The Singapore Civil Defence Force, which was alerted at about the same time, said that its assistance was not required as no one was injured.
