My dad was assaulted by a rider on an electronic scooter at Hougang Avenue 7 while crossing the road at about 9:30 pm on Thursday 18 May 2017.
Rider is likely staying at Paya Lebar, a Chinese man, big size, looks rather muscular. Assaulter claimed to be 60 years old but my dad thinks he looks 40+.
After being attacked, my dad suffered a heart attack.
My dad did not provoke the rider, the rider was speeding towards my parent while they were crossing the road, and my dad was avoiding him and the plastic bag he was carrying that contained my dad’s raincoat accidentally brushed the man on his helmet.
That guy then stopped and assaulted my dad straight away. passersby rushed to my dad’s aid and helped. when my dad said he was gonna call the police, the rider made a run for it. 1 of the passerby tried to chase after the rider but lost him somewhere near Paya Lebar.
One of the passersby tried to chase after the rider but lost him somewhere near Paya Lebar.
A police report has already been made.
My dad has to stay in the hospital still because of his heart attack and injuries. he was punched in his chest and face. cut to his left eye and lips, abrasion to his arms, bruises on his face n forehead, bruises on the back of his head.
Most of the blows were apparently aimed at his face and head. luckily there is no fracture or broken bones but my Dad is a 69 years old man and to be subjected to such brutality is really inhuman.
Please help me to share, we want this guy to be caught!
