SINGAPORE : Two workers were injured after a glass panel fell onto them at a construction site near Upper Serangoon Road.

Both workers were trapped under the glass panel inside a container at Lowland Road.

One of the workers managed to scramble out of the container before officers from the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) arrived. He suffered cuts on his left wrist and was sent to a hospital.

SCDF officers had to cut the glass to rescue the second worker. He was freed after nearly two hours and was conveyed to a hospital. - CNA/de
