A 25-year-old Chinese lady Ms Neo Shiea Chee, a teacher at
Holy Innocents High School , was run over by a southbound train at Ang Mo Kio MRT station shortly before 7pm on 11 Jan 2003 when she fell into the tracks and was crushed by an oncoming train. She was too engrossed in reading her book and was unaware that the train was already approaching the station. Trains were not disrupted as Ang Mo Kio Station's northbound trains used the centre platform.
