A 44-year-old man died after he had apparently set himself on fire in his Sengkang flat at Block 351C Anchorvale Road on Tuesday morning (Jan 28).
Stomper Jean alerted Stomp to the fire on the fourth floor of the block and shared videos and photos of flames inside the flat and smoke escaping out one of the windows.
The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) told Stomp that they responded to the fire at about 4.20am.
"SCDF conducted forcible entry into the unit and extinguished the fire, which involved the contents of a bedroom, using one water jet," an SCDF spokesman said.
"A man was conveyed to Sengkang General Hospital."
The man, Lei Zu An, had succumbed to his injuries after he was taken to the hospital.
