Monkey causes disruption in Pasir Ris

SINGAPORE: A monkey chased a boy near block 608 on Elias Road, in Pasir Ris on Thursday afternoon, causing disruption but no harm. Police received a call from the boy's mother but added that the monkey was not behaving aggressively and no one was injured.

Another caller told Channel NewsAsia that the monkey had been on the bridge behind block 512. Police officers guided people across the bridge for safety while the monkey hung around on a nearby tree.

The animal found the bridge such a cosy hang out that, according to the Channel NewsAsia viewer, it stuck around for three hours. - CNA/yy
