SINGAPORE — A 45-year-old man will be charged on Thursday (Sept 24) with voluntarily causing grievous hurt to another man.

In a news release on Wednesday, the police said that they were alerted to a fight at Block 182A Rivervale Crescent at about 3.45pm on Tuesday.

The 45-year-old man had fled the scene before the officers arrived.

The victim injured in the fight was conscious when he was taken to Sengkang General Hospital, the police said. He is in a stable condition.

Through ground enquiries and with the aid of images from police cameras, officers from the Ang Mo Kio Police Division established the identity of the assailant and arrested him within four hours.

In a video that has since surfaced online, a man in a dark-coloured T-shirt can be seen raining blows on another man who was unresponsive on the ground.

The man can be seen walking away to put on his slippers, before coming back to hit and stamp on the victim.

The victim was also slapped by the man as bystanders looked on from a distance.

If found guilty of voluntarily causing grievous hurt, he may be jailed for up to 10 years, fined or caned.

The police said that they have zero tolerance towards such acts of violence. "(We) will not hesitate to take action against those who blatantly disregard the law.”
