Father Christopher Lee, a parish priest of St. Joseph Church in the west-central Singapore region of Bukit Timah, was attacked by a knife-wielding man while celebrating the 5:30 p.m. Mass on Saturday.

A Singapore man, who stabbed a Catholic priest during a weekend Mass, has been charged with “voluntarily causing grievous hurt using a weapon likely to cause death”. Also, the Ministry of Manpower has issued an advisory for the public on handling a similar situation.
