A man allegedly blocked an SBS Transit bus and caused a commotion for nearly an hour in Sengkang on Sunday (Oct 11).<\/p>\n
The white-haired elderly man was reportedly upset after being unable to board the bus.<\/p>\n
The incident occurred at around 7pm at a bus stop in front of the multi-storey car park at Block 156A Rivervale Crescent, according to Lianhe Zaobao.<\/p>\n
A bystander, identified as Shen Sirui, told Shin Min Daily News that she saw the man, who was dressed in a white shirt and jeans, standing on a zebra crossing in front of the bus stop and preventing SBS Transit service 371 from moving off.<\/p>\n
Shen said she did not know exactly what had happened, but saw the man and the bus driver engaged in a heated argument.<\/p>\n
The 40-year-old also provided photos showing the stationary bus with the man standing in front of it, repeatedly waving his arms and appearing visibly agitated.<\/p>\n
According to Shin Min Daily, the commotion began after the bus allegedly drove off without stopping for the man, who had been waiting at the bus stop.<\/p>\n
The man allegedly did not signal his intention to board as the bus approached, causing it to pass the stop without picking him up.<\/p>\n
The bus reportedly stopped a short distance ahead at a zebra crossing to allow pedestrians to cross, and the man then walked towards the crossing and positioned himself in front of the vehicle.<\/p>\n
He allegedly vented his frustration by shouting at the driver and demanding to be let on board.<\/p>\n
However, the bus driver reportedly refused to open the doors and allow him to board.<\/p>\n
The dispute reportedly continued for about an hour, with passengers eventually having to alight from the bus.<\/p>\n
Shen said that there were initially no police officers at the scene, but several police vehicles later arrived after the commotion dragged on.<\/p>\n
The man was eventually allowed to board the bus and was seen speaking with police officers inside.<\/p>\n
