SINGAPORE - Stingray sightings are a common occurrence in the waters around Singapore and they are known to be docile unless disturbed, said experts who were responding to reports of two recent incidents involving the creatures off Sentosa beaches.
A Sentosa Development Corporation (SDC) spokesman on Monday (April 5) confirmed with The Straits Times that its beach patrol officers responded with first-aid assistance to two beachgoers who reported marine stings on March 28.
