Late‑Night Drama at Golden Mile Tower Leaves One Man Bruised and Baffled
What Went Down
At about 12:20 am on January 9, a simple night at Golden Mile Tower turned into a chaotic scramble when a vicious group of men launched an unprovoked attack on a fellow patron.
- The assailants took turns hammering and kicking the victim as onlookers tried to intervene.
- Security footage, shared by Stomp contributor Mike, captures the brutal back‑and‑forth.
The Victim’s Voice
During a phone chat, the victim, Jonathan, explained what jolted him:
“I’ve seen them before. They hit the spot around three times, living it up, throwing glasses and mic‑phones like it’s a party.”
He added, “They got drunk, tossed around, and opened a few bottles. Eight strikes from the third bottle, and I was left in a not‑so‑pretty heap.”
When Things Calmed Down
- The heckles were suppressed when more patrons finally gathered to stop the melee.
- Friends rushed Jonathan home by 1–2 am, then he headed to Singapore General Hospital between 7–8 am for emergency care.
Medical Rundown
Jonathan recounted:
“My head and face were bruised, my eyes swelled like a timid balloon. The kicks hit my ribs, knocking my stomach out of whack. I felt dizzy and even purged a little.”
Legal Steps
In a later move, Jonathan filed a police report on January 16, saying:
“How can someone assault another person with that level of brutality?”
Why the Outrage Matters
Incidents like these underline why vigilance and swift action from the crowd can make all the difference in a night that might otherwise turn tragic.
