若锦街发现二战炸弹! 今日引爆附近公寓酒店住户被疏散

根据新加坡警方脸书贴文周六(16日)在脸书发文公告,指若锦街、里峇峇利埔(River Valley Green)和金声路(Kim Seng Road)等部分路段,将从今早9时30分开始封路,究竟所为何事?
根据该贴文,警方解释事缘本月12日下午,警方接获投报指在若锦街一建筑工地发现一枚旧炸弹。
警方不敢怠慢,请武装部队军火拆爆组(EOD)前往鉴定,得知这是二战期间的空投弹,约50公斤重,基于转移不安全,当局决定必须在现场引爆。
文告称拆弹组将在今日8时至6时期间进行引爆工作。而附近200米的酒店和公寓居民也已被疏散,并劝请其他民众切勿靠近上述地点,且不准放无人机进行航拍。
据了解该区附近有国敦河畔大酒店 (Grand Copthorne Waterfront hotel)和Mirage Tower等公寓。居民在此期间需暂时撤离。而今早受影响路段也戒备森严,可见不少警员在被封路段驻守。
