However, the Police Coast Guard managed to intercept the ferry before it left Singapore’s waters. Officers later arrested the woman at about 11.30am.
The 28-year-old had allegedly scalded a man in MacPherson earlier that day.
Police surveillance cameras apparently captured footage of her pouring water on a 24-year-old man near Balam Street. The man reportedly suffered second-degree burns and was conveyed to the hospital.
The police were alerted to the incident at about 7.30am, four hours before the woman’s eventual arrest.
