SINGAPORE : Police have arrested the 54-year-old driver of a hit-and-run accident, some 18 hours after the incident.
The accident took place along Rochor Canal Road on Monday at 11.40pm.
Two youths were injured while they were crossing the junction of Rochor Canal Road and Bencoolen Street.
The driver then fled the scene in his Mazda towards the direction of Bukit Timah Road but was arrested at 5pm on Tuesday, after police found the car at a repair shop in Ang Mo Kio.
The 21-year-old male victim was knocked unconscious and is currently in intensive care at Tan Tock Seng Hospital.
His 19-year-old female friend - a student at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts - sustained facial injury and abrasions.
Nursakinah said: "There was a green man, so we started walking. While we were walking, there was a taxi beside us on the extreme left. But after that, I do not know what happened - it happened so fast. I just felt that something hit me..." - CNA/ms
