Family lodges police report after woman falls from bus

The family of an 84-year-old woman has filed a police report after she fell from an SBS Transit bus which allegedly moved off while she was getting down at a bus stop.

Madam Yeo Hock Imm, who underwent a procedure to replace her right hip joint at Tan Tock Seng Hospital, is now looking at three to four weeks of recovery in Ang Mo Kio Community Hospital.

'We want to find out what happened - why the driver did that, and drove away,' claimed her son Joseph Tan, 46, who filed the police report on the day of the accident on March 4.

Mr Tan, a pastor, said the family's concern is with making sure something similar does not happen again, and with accountability more than anything else.
