SINGAPORE, Singapore : Firemen douse a charred ambulance after a riot broke out in Singapore, in the early hours of December 9, 2013. A riot broke out among South Asian workers in Singapore late in the night of December 8, damaging police cars and other vehicles in the city state’s Little India district, eyewitnesses and local media said. The rare outbreak of public disorder in strictly controlled Singapore took place in an area normally packed with thousands of workers, mostly from the Indian subcontinent, on their day off. The cause of the incident was not immediately clear and the situation was brought under control within two hours, people on the scene told AFP. AFP PHOTO / ROSLAN RAHMAN
