A video emerged online showing a group of young punks engaging in an intense fight, with many punches being thrown in the brawl.
Two uncles happened to be at the scene, slowly backed away from the fight, wanting nothing to do with it.
One of the uncles tried to stop the fight from happening by trying to calm down one of the Bengs.
One of the guys could be seen being punched in the face as his friend came over to defend him, beating up his assailant.
Another guy than came running into the brawl and savagely beat up one of the guys who was raining blows on his friend, continuing to throw punches at his head as the guy fell to the ground.
The brawl then escalated with more people jumping in, before the group disbanded and fled the scene.
The fight purportedly happened at Telok Blangah Crescent and at the time of writing, the police are currently at the scene interviewing eyewitnesses.

Ong Ye Kung, the Minister of Transport, said on 23 April, at LTA’s 25th anniversary celebration, that the recent conflicts between motorists and cyclists are “inevitable”, as the country’s transport options increases.
Ong said:
“Such conflicts are inevitable when transport options increase, and we will have to deal with it by consulting widely, putting in place new rules, education and enforcement.”
He likens the situation to a “transport multi-verse”, borrowing the analogy from DC Comics, and explains that conflicts will arise at the intersection of the multi-verse.
A mobility network, basically, is a network that accommodates alternative modes of trnsport, such as bicycles, PMDs and even running/walking.
They are expected to complement Singapore’s road networks with a parallel network of cycling paths and park connectors, expanding to 1,300km by the year 2030.

India is facing a national crisis, with the country’s daily Covid-19 cases hitting 346,786 on 24 April.
They have set a new world record for the third consecutive day.
They have also seen 2,767 deaths in 1 day (24 April), making it the highest daily rate in the country.
The ailing country has a population of 1.3 billion people, with 16.6 million cases in total so far, which includes 189,544 deaths.
As the country’s hospitals are getting overwhelmed, the Indian government has deployed military planes to get oxygen tanks sourced from the rest of their country, as well as neighbouring countries including Singapore, to Delhi.
The situation is very severe, as they are seeing 1 Covid-19 death every 4 minutes.
Yet despite this emergency, the country has yet to announce any national lockdown plans.
India is also facing a shortage of vaccines, despite administering more than 130 million doses so far.
They are reportedly facing a shortage of vaccines after giving away many vaccines in early 2021 to generate international goodwill.
