Channel 3 News reported that the driver was a Singaporean man who was heavily intoxicated at the time.

The 58-year-old food cart owner sustained cuts and scrapes to his body.

Woman accuses injured street vendor of faking injuries

After the crash, the driver’s female companion insulted the injured street vendor, allegedly calling him a “wimp” and accusing him of pretending to be hurt.

She also obstructed responders trying to administer first aid, which led nearby locals to intervene and restrain her.

The woman further claimed to know a high-ranking officer, suggesting that police shouldn’t arrest her because of her connections.
