A video of a delivery rider in a fight with two men at a restaurant in Penang went viral on Wednesday (15 Mar). At one point, the two men even threw chairs at the rider.
The fight purportedly took place yesterday (14 Mar) and occurred as the rider had allegedly insulted a female staff at the restaurant.
According to Sin Chew Daily, Penang Southwest Police District has confirmed the incident and stated that three men are assisting in police investigations.
The video, which lasts a minute and five seconds, shows two men hitting someone wearing what appears to be the foodpanda uniform.
The pair grabbed restaurant chairs and proceed hit the rider. However, the rider is able to wrestle the chair away from them.
He then begins to retaliate with his fists, attempting to fight both men.

After being separated, the rider drops to the floor and picks up his mobile phone to record a video.
The man walks away, apparently in an attempt to avoid being recorded. The rider follows, still pointing his phone at him.
