‘Can y’all convince him’ to see a doctor? Actor Noah Yap visits 73-year-old uncle who was assaulted after he patted a child on her head

A video circulating on Facebook showed an uncle being pushed to the ground in a coffee shop after briefly touching a child on the head. The incident occurred at Bei-Ing Wanton Noodle, a Cantonese eatery on East Coast Road, on Saturday. The woman sitting across from the child, likely her mother, confronted the uncle after he did this.

Moments later, a man who had been sitting with the girl and his mother approached the uncle and began to confront him. The man grabbed the uncle by the arm and pulled him to the ground in an angry manner. Other men quickly came to the uncle's aid and helped him up. The uncle's son was interviewed on social media, expressing shock and stating that his father was suffering from severe back pain following the incident. He appealed to Noah Yap, a 40-year-old actor, for help in identifying the man responsible.
