According to Shin Min Daily News, the incident occurred around 10pm at a Kopitiam restaurant. Video footage, uploaded to Reddit, showed a 50-year-old man approaching the older man. The older man reportedly warned the younger man not to threaten him, to which the younger man responded, \"You want to call for backup? Go ahead.\" The dispute escalated as the younger man allegedly pushed the older man to the ground, causing him to fall. Passersby assisted the older man, who was later taken to the hospital. The Singapore Police Force confirmed receiving a call for help at 9:55pm that day. Investigations into the incident are ongoing.",
