A 31-year-old man was arrested after he had allegedly assaulted an auxiliary police officer with a metal bar in Bukit Panjang.
In response to a Stomp query, the police said they received a call for assistance in the vicinity of Jelapang Road on June 13 at about 11.12pm.
A video of the incident has been circulating online showing a man pointing an object at two police officers.
The man is seen walking up some stairs towards the officers even though someone can be heard shouting 'Taser' several times in the video.
The man falls backwards and two more people and an auxiliary police officer rush forward to help subdue the man with one of the police officers.
"When police officers arrived, the man allegedly brandished the metal bar at the officers and refused to comply with their instructions to stop his aggressive conduct and continue to advance towards officers," the police said.
