Singapore—A fight seemingly between several individuals, in front of a fast-food outlet at Jewel Changi Airport on Sunday, December 8, resulted in the arrest of two men.
The men, ages 43 and 45, were arrested for affray after the fight, a spokesman for the Police told The Straits Times (ST). Both of the men suffered from minor injuries.
A 15-second video clip of the brawl has made rounds on WhatsApp as well as on sock media, Facebook pages Legit Singapore and All Singapore Stuff both uploading the footage, which showed a number of both men and women stepping in to separate the individuals involved in the fight, which occurred in front of A&W, a hamburger chain from the United States known for its long queues.

Some netizens wondered what the fight was all about
Netizens could not seem to resist poking fun at the brawlers.
Others seemed genuinely puzzled as to why anyone would fight over the food at A&W, presuming that was the cause of the altercation.
Yet others said that this kind of behavior does not characterise Singapore
