Recap on Cheryl Miles’ incident
On 26 July at around 4.20 pm, Cheryl Miles was walking out of the Orchard MRT station when she encountered a man who blocked her path.
Without warning, the man then allegedly punched her right arm in the concourse area. The incident occurred at the bustling transit hub, leaving bystanders shocked and concerned for Cheryl’s well-being.
Miles then took out her phone and filmed her alleged attacker, who was seen looking away from the camera and gesturing at her, before trying to walk away as Miles exclaimed in the video “-police, yo, yo, you just punched me, dude,” as the man waved her away before leaving the scene.
The police sprang into action immediately after receiving reports of the assault. Through meticulous investigation and the assistance of surveillance cameras at the station, officers from Tanglin Division managed to identify the suspect as William Aw Chin Chai.
He was then subsequently arrested by the police.
