STOMPer Mrs Chia spotted what appears to be a monitor
lizard at a canal opposite KK Hospital. According the STOMPer, the

Mrs Chia says:
"Spotted this reptile swimming leisurely in the canal opposite KK Hospital.
"It appeared to be 50cm or more in length.
"I called the police.
"The creature was crawling into a drain headed towards LTA (Land Transport Authority) when I last saw it."
