SINGAPORE: A motorcycle burst into flames at an open air car park in Bishan on Wednesday night (Feb 9), with the fire spreading to a car parked beside it.
Responding to media queries, the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it was alerted to the incident at the car park next to Block 172, Bishan Street 13, at about 10.50pm on Wednesday.
The fire was extinguished using a hose reel.
