Suspect arrested after man found unconscious at void deck in Clementi dies; video shows stabbing In video footage of the incident recorded by residents and seen by ST, the suspect is seen walking past a playground. PHOTO: LIANHE ZAOBAO READER SINGAPORE – A 50-year-old man has been arrested for his suspected involvement in the death of a 41-year-old man, who was found unconscious at the void deck of a Clementi housing block on Oct 21. The victim was taken to hospital where he died, the police said. Early investigations suggest the two men knew each other. The police said they received a call for help at 5pm about an incident in Clementi Avenue 4. The suspect was arrested at the scene, they added. When The Straits Times arrived at Block 311B at around 7.30pm, Holland-Bukit Timah GRC MP Sim Ann was seen comforting an elderly man and woman, who were crying. In video footage of the incident recorded by residents and seen by ST, the suspect is seen chasing the victim to the foot of Block 311B. The victim appears to trip over a drain cover and falls, and the suspect seems to stab him repeatedly with a small object. People are heard shouting for him to stop, and a woman dressed in red and a parking attendant try to pull the suspect away from the victim. The victim then kicks him and crawls away. A few seconds later, the suspect dives at him and manages to stab him one more time. The victim then collapses face down and stops moving. Residents who did not want to be identified said the suspect then got into a black car and drove to the nearby multi-storey carpark. He then rammed the car repeatedly into another vehicle before being stopped at the exit of the carpark. The suspect then said he was going to surrender, came out of the car and lay on the ground before police officers arrested him, residents said.
