this article very old lei. appear in new paper last year
here's the article:
IT begins as a harmless video apparently shot with a camera phone from a moving car.
A little girl is talking to her father, who is filming a clip of a woman walking her dog along the road and nothing exciting happens.
Before you know it, a woman is filmed screaming and chasing after the cameraman.
Expletives fly and he is cowering in fear in a lift with his terrified child.
Meet the Singapore Lift Auntie.
But before you judge her to be the villain, like the Hong Kong Bus Uncle (see report on facing page), you should read what other netizens claim to be the real story behind this confrontation.
ON WEBSITE
Like the Bus Uncle, the Singapore Lift Auntie clip can be viewed at a popular website. The clip was posted on 31 May (2006).
The 1 min 54 sec clip begins with the man driving past a woman walking her dog. She's wearing a dark blue top and beige bermudas.
While he's filming the woman and her pet, a little girl's voice is heard in the background, saying: 'That's not the dog, daddy.'
'Yes, it is,' her father replies. 'The dog is not leashed.'
REASON FOR CONFRONTATION
A netizen posted what he claimed was the reason for the confrontation that would follow.
He alleged that tensions had been brewing between the man and the dog owner for some time.
Apparently, the man was not happy that the dog had not been leashed.
But the netizen claimed that the dog had not bothered anyone.
Apparently, the filming escalated into a confrontation over the dog that continued to the lift.
From the mandane shots from the car, the scene suddenly cuts to a lift in what looks like a condominium.
The footage, shot from inside the lift, shows a security guard trying to prevent two women, with the same dog behind them, from forcing their way into the lift.
One of the women, who looks to be in her 40s, is heard shouting and screaming and seen shoving the guard while demanding that he get out of her way.
He refuses as the camera rolls on.
The man she is after points the camera at her throughout and his daughter can be heard in the background sounding afraid.
But it was not clearly audible.
The man is heard telling the guard: 'Take her away!'
Hurling vulgarities in Hokkien at the security guard, the woman tries to lay her hands on the man filming her.
The camera then shakes violently as she manages to land a few blows on him.
The guard is barely able to keep her out and he appears to be in difficulty himself.
When he finally manages to calm her down, she says loudly: 'That is not right! He kicked me first!'
But just when you think she has got over it, she tries once again to lunge at the man.
CRYING GIRL
After again struggling with the guard, she swings her handbag smack into the camera.
The daughter is heard crying when the handbag hits its target, but she is not seen in the clip.
The unsavoury incident ends only when the lift door closes.
The film looks realistic and the emotions displayed looked real and raw.
The New Paper e-mailed the person who posted the clip, but he did not respond.
We also e-mailed the writer who claimed he knew what happened, but he too did not reply.
POSTING REMOVED
His posting was removed later yesterday.
After we sent our questions yesterday, the clip was edited.
The edition version did not have the opening sequence of the man driving past the woman and her dog.
Freelance writer Magdalene Phua saw part of the clip and said it was disturbing.
She said: 'You can't fake such emotion seen on the woman's face. She is filled with rage.
'It looks very violent.'
A police spokesman said: 'The police will look into the matter when a report is lodged.'
