| MORNING rush hour train services at Chua Chu Kang station were
disrupted on Monday after a man was found dead on the MRT track.
Police received a call at 8 am that a man had fallen onto the track, near the 5th exit from the rear. The man, a Chinese in his mid-40s, was pronounced dead at 8.30 am. The incident disrupted the morning peak hour train services between Yew Tee and Bukit Gombak stations, towards Jurong East. Trains running on this line had to turn around. SMRT sent a dozen buses to the station to bring the stranded commuters to the connecting stations shortly after 8 am. Normal train services resumed at about 8.50 am after the body of the man was removed from the track. A shopkeeper in the station said he heard commuters saying that the man had jumped onto the track. Police are investigating.
