Incident allegedly stemmed from disagreement over PMD repairs conducted outside neighbour’s flat
A woman who threw multiple pairs of her neighbour’s shoes down a HDB block in Ang Mo Kio was caught in the act on CCTV.
The incident allegedly stemmed from a disagreement earlier in the day, when the woman engaged a repairman to conduct repairs on her personal mobility device (PMD) along the common corridor of Blk 314 Ang Mo Kio Ave 3.
She had also allegedly parked her PMD outside the neighbour’s flat on multiple occasions.
