The police believe they're on solid footing here.

I disagree. They don’t have a leg to stand on.

Someone over committed themselves when doing the hokey pokey.

“You put your left leg in
You put your left leg out
You put your left leg in
And you shake it all about
You do the Hokey Pokey and you turn yourself around
That’s what it’s all about!”

Perhaps they found the rest of the person behind the dumpster. Looks like the wheel rolled over their leg. Homeless? Passed out? Although for some reason I wouldn’t think their are too many homeless in Singapore.

If chewing gum can get you a bunch of lashes with a cane, I can’t imagine the penalty for living on the street.

Years ago, I saw a story about a boot that had been found, with a foot in it. A deputy was quoted as saying “ We’re stumped. We don’t usually find boots with feet in them.”
