A lucky (or unlucky, depending on your perspective) man was just waiting for his wife to finish work when his Nissan Cefiro sedan spontaneously caught fire.
The man had parked his car at a carpark along Balestier's Lorong Limau, turned off the engine and sat on a bench at a void deck, waiting for his wife to end her shift at a National Kidney Foundation centre nearby. He was looking down on his phone when he realized that his car was engulfed in flames, The New Paper reported.
The Singapore Civil Defence Force was alerted and their personnel quickly put out the fire with two water jets. A van parked beside the car was also damaged during the blaze; nobody was reported injured.
