I honked gently to warn them and the guy hit my side mirror and driver&#8217;s door.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">The Stomper said he stopped the car and confronted the man, who told him to get back into his car and said: &#8220;What can you do?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">The motorist found a place to park his car and again confronted the man, who repeated: &#8220;What can you do?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">The man added sarcastically: &#8220;I&#8217;m scared.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">He then removed his rings from his fingers and was ready to fight, said the Stomper in the police report.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">The motorist continued: &#8220;I told him to wait for the police. He was smoking a cigarette and blew smoke in my face. He started to push me and I kept saying to wait for the police to settle this.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">&#8220;He became angry and pinned me down on a nearby car. He held his hand onto my neck and I feared for my life that it might break.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">&#8220;His girlfriend came to take him away and just walked across the road. I took a video of them walking away and he tried to grab my mobile phone. However, he did not manage to get it.<\/p>\n<p><iframe class=\"video-container my-lg w-[620px] h-[349px]\" src=\"https:\/\/players.brightcove.net\/4802324446001\/default_default\/index.html?videoId=6387004641112\" title=\"#NoTapis\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">&#8220;He then pushed me until I hit a car parked nearby. I followed them towards Jalan Besar MRT station and took a few photos of them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">Following the incident, the Stomper immediately went to the Rochor Neighbourhood Police Centre to make a police report.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">The next day, the Stomper went to Tan Tock Seng Hospital and was given three days&#8217; medical leave.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">In response to a Stomp query, the police confirmed a report was lodged.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\"><span><b>If you are a witness to the incident or have photos or videos of what happened, kindly contact Stomp at stomp@sph.com.sg or WhatsApp 9384 3761.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<hr class=\"border-t border-primary-200 mt-xl mb-md\"\/>\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-md py-md xl:flex-row xl:items-center\"><span class=\"font-primary text-18 font-semibold leading-1.2 text-black\">Get more of Stomp&#8217;s latest updates by following us on:<\/span><\/div>\n<hr class=\"border-t border-primary-200 mt-xl mb-md\"\/>\n<p>Join the conversation<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stomp.sg\/singapore-seen\/motorist-alleges-drunk-man-little-india-pinned-him-down-held-his-neck-i-feared-my\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A motorist was allegedly assaulted in Little India on the night of Dec 26 and is appealing for witnesses to step forward.
