A quiet Sunday (Oct 24) night at Paya Lebar Square turned rowdy after a group of men got themselves into a fight.

The brawl at the open space outside the shopping mall was filmed by passers-by and shared on social media over the next two days.

In a clip posted on Facebook on Tuesday (Oct 26), the men were throwing punches and kicks at each other or giving chase to those who were running away from the fight.

A man was kicked in the buttocks and knocked to the ground. He attempted to flee but his assailant would not let up. The attacker gave chase before flying into a kung fu kick, making contact with his target.

Meanwhile, passers-by were seen avoiding the men by standing along the staircase.

A longer 51-second video was posted on another Facebook page.

Tensions remained high as the video panned towards the men seemingly heading to Paya Lebar MRT station, with screams in the background.

In response to AsiaOne's queries, the police said: "On Oct 24, at 8.15pm, the police were alerted to a fight at 60 Paya Lebar Road.

"Police investigations are ongoing."

They were chopping them up, they were chopping them down
It’s an ancient Chinese art and everybody knew their part

When I was studying martial arts when this song was out our class would go to one of the small restaurants around the college town.

We would walk maybe four or blocks away at night and joke about what if some bad dudes unknowingly tried to mug us and we would lash out in a fury of controlled violent mayhem.

Funny thing was our one actual fellow from China who looked like Bruce Lee was the worst of us——would leave his leg out in the air for a second after a snap kick and so on. We would have had to rescue him.
