Videos emerged online showing a huge group of gangsters fighting with each other at what appears to be an eatery/bistro.
A netizen surmised that the incident presumably happened at Boat Quay.
There was a lot of pushing and shoving, before the situation took an inexplicable turn and escalated, with punches flying left, right and centre.
Tables were seen overturned as chairs started flying, with one of the gangsters deciding to pick up some forks and spoons to use as a weapon – moments later a flying chair landed right against his head.
A few of the diners who were minding their own business and enjoying their meals, ended up having to flee their table and food.
One of the flying chairs landed onto his plate and rice could be seen turning airborne from the impact.
One of the drivers on the road beside the fight started pressing his horn again and again, in an attempt to stop the fight.
