last time army site will say Trespassers will be prosecuted. Maybe they will write that in bold and proceed to charge all the cyclist involved in this incident as a warning.

The real pity is the perpetrator survived.
Please no, it will be a nightmare for everyone involved and the fella who accidentally killed a civie probably be traumatised

Damn lucky that he never die lor

Maybe next time they will ride through while ParLeemant is in session and get whacked by the Sargent At Arms with the Mace...

This is why perimeter control and proper signage matter, especially near live-firing zones. It’s not just about safety, it’s about survival. People often underestimate how real the risk is.

Live Firing in Forest Area usually means locally firing blanks lah.. u really think they use hot 5.56 rounds in non enclosed area? if really live rounds, probably those 7.62 MG rounds firing upwards towards reservoir, man probably wounded with gravity fallen rounds firing around over 1000m beyond safety officers view.

Infantry recruits need to hands-on practice local perimeter defense. Static Firing range cannot practise coordinated firing.
Too much ranges, infantry men only shoot when officers shout "Firers watch your front"

You've never done live firing in live firing area outside the range with live rounds?

ROFLOL 🤣 goes to show you never serve ns or is scdf or spf? Blank, thunder flash, smoke grenade use is during field training when attacking “enemy”

When come to live firing, all the round use is live and can caused injuries and death be it M16 or GPMG, just that the latter round is bigger and fire power is stronger and can fire burst of round and further distance but doesn’t mean all the rounds will land inside the target, unlike a Sniper firing with a sniper scope

Only at Tekong with Ultimax 100 in the early 90s, near the cliff facing the sea.
Never in mainland SG, outside range.
