A 23-year-old man who was injured in a knife attack at Boon Lay Shopping Centre on Wednesday (Oct 7) did not know his assailant.
The attack, which occurred outside FairPrice supermarket at Block 221 Boon Lay Place at around 12.40pm, left Mr Lee Jing Wen with head and facial injuries.
James Teck Jing You, 18, was charged with one count of voluntarily causing grievous hurt with a weapon on Friday.
According to Lianhe Wanbao , the two men did not know each other. However, they were seen in a dispute at FairPrice’s entrance prior to the attack.
Teck had apparently asked Mr Lee, who was about to enter the supermarket, to buy cigarettes on his behalf, reported Wanbao .
Mr Lee declined and went to the supermarket entrance to have his temperature taken, only to be attacked from behind.
