The driver who was killed following a crash along Raffles Boulevard in the wee hours of Aug 10 has been identified as 29-year-old Mr Ng Phing Keen.

Stompers Jason and Trevor had earlier alerted Stomp to the incident, which occurred at around 2.30am outside Marina Square.

They saw a stone barrier lodged in the middle of the car bonnet, as well as Mr Ng trapped inside his vehicle.

Mr Ng is understood to have lost control of his Honda Civic, which skidded and crashed into the barrier.

He was extricated using hydraulic tools, said the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF).

A police spokesman told Stomp that the victim was unconscious when conveyed to Singapore General Hospital (SGH), where he died from his injuries.

According to Shin Min Daily News, Mr Ng was the boss of a car garage.

His Facebook profile shows that he was an automobile enthusiast who ran 'Keen's Car Stuff'.
