Singapore — A video of a fight in Geylang has been circulating on Facebook.

Some thought the police should have been called to break up the fight.
Another netizen suggested tougher penalties for fighting in public spaces to deter offenders.
It is unclear what the fight was about.
For fighting in a public place and disturbing the peace, an offender can be jailed for up to a year, fined S$5,000, or both.
