According to 8world News, the accident occurred near Block 956 Jurong West Street 91 on Tuesday (23 Jan) night.

Speaking to the Chinese news site, Mr Chen (transliterated from Mandarin), a colleague of the victim, said that both men often quarrelled over trivial matters.
He said that the pair got into a dispute over an undisclosed matter on the morning of the incident.
In the process, the man in blue grew unhappy over the other party’s finger-pointing.
Later that evening, both men’s employers met to discuss the matter.
However, the exchange didn’t go down well and the police were even alerted to the scene.
Nonetheless, both parties agreed not to continue arguing about the matter.
The truce didn’t last long as the man in blue later invited the man in white to the back alley to clarify matters, which kicked off the brawl.
Mr Chen said that the man in white suffered multiple bruises on his face, lacerations on his limbs, as well as a headache.
Doctors recommended that he recuperate for half a month in light of his injuries.
Turns out, this isn’t the first time that an employee of Top Durian Station was involved in a brawl.
Last May, an employee from the stall’s Yishun outlet got into a fight with another fruit seller.
8world News also managed to catch up with the boss of SG Durian Boy, who did not want to reveal much as police investigations are ongoing.
When asked about the tension between both fruit stalls, he shared that one of the reasons could be staff leaving Top Durian Station to join his stall.
As for the brawl, he felt that both men were at fault.
