The two men, aged 54 and 55, suffered injuries but refused conveyance, the SPF said.

The altercation happened outside Cheng San Market & Cooked Food Centre in Ang Mo Kio.

Eyewitnesses said the argument appeared to be over a woman, according to Shin Min Daily News (SMDN). One of the men was allegedly unhappy that the other was dating other women despite being married.

Man takes off shirt before fight

According to residents, one of the men, described as bald, dramatically removed his shirt before the scuffle began as if readying for a fight.

The pair reportedly argued for several minutes before exchanging punches and falling to the ground during the skirmish.
