Facebook user Amber Xia recounted an incident regarding one of her friends during a trip to Singapore University Studio, which might possibly refer to Universal Studios Singapore.

Here is her post.

Cannot believe such disgusting person can exist in Singapore.

Today, my friend, a mum of 3 year old girl, and I was watching the fireworks with

our kids in Singapore University Studio.

A man (with picture below) suddenly crossed the head of my friend’s 3 year old daughter from our back. His shoe skimmed through the little girl and almost stepped on her head. However, He did not even look back and just walked away. My friend’s kid was scared and asked her mum: why that uncle hit my head?

Until now we were thinking maybe that man did not see the kid. Moreover, two kids had a great day and we did not want to make bad things big.

In addition, that man walked away from seat as well. So even though we were very angry but I gently asked the girl (probably his girlfriend or wife) sitting beside him that please ask him to be mindful of young child while walking.

The girl was polite and said sorry to us. We thought it was the end and continued to enjoy the firework. However, to our surprise, that man returned to his seat.

Not sure what his girlfriend or wife told him. He did not apologize to us BUT started shouting to us that it was not his fault stepping on kid because we blocked his way so we should apologize to him.

He also used his mobile phone camera to flash us.

Any parent knows that mobile flash is very harmful to young child’s eyes.I was so shocked and stopped him from flashing my kid.

What kind of scum will shout to 2 mum and two 3 year old kids after stepping on kid head even if he did not do it intentionally?! My friend and I stopped arguing with him as our kids were so scared by him and hold us tightly.

We also feared that he may hit us.

I cannot believe I come across such person in Singapore and not sure how to deal with such kind of person in singapore. But I truly believe an old saying: good is rewarded and evil is punished.

The post dealt with 2 main issues:

1) The rudeness of the man after accidentally scraping the back of the kid's head, and

2) Shining the phone's light against Xia, her friend, and the kids.

The backlash was quick, with some calling him an imbecile among other insults.

However, the virality of the Xia's post invariably meant that some people who also happened to be at Singapore University Studio, came forward with an account that differs slightly from Xia's narrative.

Here are some of the accounts given:

With this perhaps summarising the other side succinctly:

The presence of another man in this story, for one — purportedly the husband of one of the two ladies. Also, these other accounts claim the man had not actually shone the light at Xia's children's faces.

There are always two sides to a given story.
