Train services were disrupted on Thursday morning when a man jumped off the station platform of Ang Mo Kio MRT station after an argument with his mother.

Shin Min Daily News reported that this incident occurred at 10am on the platform heading towards Jurong East.

According to the Chinese evening daily, the pair had exchanged a few heated words before the 26-year-old man stopped and remained silent, while his mother continued to reprimand him. He leapt onto the tracks shortly after.

The mother then cried for help, alarming the passengers on the platform.

"I had just gotten off the train at the opposite platform when I heard a woman shouting: 'My son is committing suicide, help!'", said Ms Cai, a 45-year-old store owner.

Station staff alerted the driver of a train that was approaching the station and managed to stop it on time.

The man eventually climbed up onto the platform after being coaxed by the staff. He was then sent to a hospital by an ambulance that had arrived at the scene. Shin Min Daily News reported that the man's arm was injured as a result of the incident.

According to the reporter who was at the scene, the man, who is bespectacled and wearing a striped t-shirt, was taken away by the police and investigations are underway.

A spokesperson from SMRT said that fares will be refunded for those whose journey was affected by this incident. Passengers can do so by approaching any SMRT station within the next three working days.

:oIo::oIo::oIo::oIo::oIo:

Seriously they should fine and jail assholes who jump on the tracks. If it some stupid desperados who died, the family will get fined. This will make them think twice about using such stupid methods to commit suicide

Mother: Son u better give me money or i report u to Garment

Son: Mum, I can't even take care of myself ok. S'pore too expensive

Mother: I don't care. Garment say u must so u must

Son: (to himself...cannot scold mother mah) CCB this MIWs. Lost touch with ground. Many people got no money outside also don't know.

Son: (again to himself) How to wake up my mother's thinking of MIW and screw MIWs at the same time. Ah! Disrupt MRT so they lose money.


footnote:

To all citizens that think MIWs are caring to put up doors on all MRT stations, think again. They are more scared of losing money from service interruptions than u dying. U die your own business hor!

Those who want to go quietly can use gas or take sleeping pills.
However those running into trains obviously want to make a very public statement.

This is something that will really hurt the PAP since its hitting their pocket books & something that can't be swept under the carpet.
