Man in S’pore caught slapping durian stall owner in Jurong
On 7 July, a closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage caught a man in a black shirt slapping a durian stall owner in Jurong, allegedly because the owner was promoting sales for his stall too loudly.
In the footage, the man had approached the stall while angrily shouting. According to 8world, the man demanded the stall to tell him who was shouting to promote the sale of durians.
Dispute gets violent
The CCTV footage has since circulated online.
In the video, the man in black is seen talking to the two women working at the stall. He shouted at them, asking if they were the ones who were promoting the durian sale.
After being met with silence, he then turned his attention to the owner.
The owner tried to calm the man down but he got more agitated. This eventually led to the man slapping the durian stall owner in the face.
