Man kicked in the face
However, the men in green and yellow tops still seem to be angry.
As someone pulls the man in green back, the man in yellow takes a chair and attempts to hit the man in orange on the ground again, but the man in the singlet stops him.

Police called over Bukit Panjang brawl
During Shin Min Daily News’ visit to the coffee shop on Sunday (3 Aug), employees said a brawl broke out among a group of uncles, who appeared drunk.
A customer allegedly called the police.
A Western food stall employee said the police stayed for about an hour.
An ambulance also arrived, as the uncles in white and orange appeared to be bleeding from their mouths.
The man in the white T-shirt is a regular and usually comes in the evening, the worker added.
A fish soup stallholder with the coffeeshop for three years said that while there are usually many uncles drinking there, this was the first time she had seen a fight break out.
