A 17-year-old girl’s walk home took a scary turn when a man allegedly accused her of stalking him, chased after her and threatened to hit her.
In a post shared on Instagram page @sgfollowsall on July 23, two days after the incident, the girl said she was walking home “peacefully” when she realised an “uncle” was shouting from behind.
She initially did not realise the man was shouting at her because she was listening to music on her AirPods, which was at full volume.
“Then I looked behind and realised he was talking to me, so I stopped the music,” she explained.
According to the girl, the man first asked her in Chinese whether she was working in Singapore, which she felt was a strange thing to ask.

She quickened her pace. He then allegedly shouted: “Why you following me home?”
“You following me home, right? Every day I see you — always following me home, from 8pm to 11pm,” he added.
The girl said it was the first time she had ever seen the man, and her first thoughts to his accusations were, “why would a 17-year-old girl with a pink backpack be following an old man home?”
Believing something was not right, she started walking faster, but to her horror, he ran, caught up with her, pushed her and said: “Why you ignoring me?”
She then ran towards a couple seated under a block of flats who were looking in her direction when the man shouted at her.
“Can help me?” she pleaded. The couple told her to sit with them.
