‘PMA vs walking stick’: 2 elderly women exchange blows at coffee shop in S’pore

Elderly women exchange blows in coffee shop
In the first video, an elderly woman in a pink shirt, seated on a PMA, raises her voice and points towards the ceiling while saying “CCTV” to another elderly woman dressed in green.
The altercation escalates when the woman in green lifts a walking stick and shoves it toward the other woman’s midsection.
The woman in pink then gets off her PMA and attempts to snatch the walking stick from the other woman while delivering a punch to her jaw.
Both women fall to the ground shortly after but continue tugging at each other. A woman in purple then rushes to the scene and attempts to help the woman in pink.
In another video, a man is seen stepping in to separate the two elderly women and appearing to urge them to stop fighting.
Despite attempts to intervene, the pair remain locked in a scuffle.
