The suspect was successfully arrested
Police and the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) confirmed receiving a call about the incident at around 8:30 PM, requesting assistance at Block 168, Lorong 1 Toa Payoh.
The suspect was later arrested for voluntarily causing hurt with a dangerous weapon. The victim was sent to the hospital and is currently being treated at Tan Tock Seng Hospital.
An eyewitness said he first saw the two men sitting with a couple at the coffee shop. Later, the men walked to a nearby HDB block, where one of them ended up sitting on the ground with what looked like a head wound.
“There was blood all over the ground”
The eyewitness suspected that the men began arguing over drinks before deciding to “settle the matter” elsewhere.
“A woman called the police and an ambulance. There was blood all over the ground; it was terrifying,” he added.
Police said investigations into the incident are currently underway.
