So shock & sad to read this.

The victim and his friends from water polo team?
How to fight with Ah Bengs who carry parangs?
Next time cannot act hero... run 1st...
How come nowdays seems like having more violent crimes? :? -
Very sad to read this. As a parent myself, I feel for the parents.
19 yrs of upbringing & hopes gone just like that
Even if there is a staring incident, must those gangsters resort to taking someone's life? Hope those scums get caught soon & face the max 24 strokes of the whip :x -

Might be reduced to manslaughter?
And if they are underage, I think it's only reformatory centre?
So sad that these youths resort to violence so easily.
Too much violent shows/games? -

So sad and horrific.
Reminds of the incident in which a Poly student who was on work attachment in China got slashed in a taxi while escaping some thugs. I thought it could only happen outside of Singapore. Guess Im wrong. -

Last nite Channel 8 news reported one witness thought is was part of halloween activities....saying the whole place is chaotic due to halloween activities....
just imagine if the halloween were to coincide with the lunar 7th month getai etc etc -
Thots newpapers did said youths join gang due to family background and are with low self esteem, with gangs there is security....very sad....so parents
are the key to kids good up bringing, will alway happen until we have a
society that people dont feel left out and the vicious cycle begins...
My heart goes to the family 19yrs of bringing up boy then gone in a second and an incident that should never have happened ...R.I.P. boy -
We talk abt fight against terrorism… yet we can’t even stop such a gang fight from happening…
Happened in broad daylight… crowded place… chopper (what if it’s something more lethal?)… -
I read with horror too..such violence. Condolences to the poor boy's family, so hard to bring up a kid especially in SG and just gone like that.
-
Yeah, horrifying....
Just last week DD had their school party post PSLe there. Scary.
My heart goes out to the parents.
-
Hope our new Home Affairs minister will add pressure and set things right… catch all the BENG gang accomplices and eradicate the whole BENG gang.
-
youngster moving around with weapons (knives)? tat’s scary!
whatever it is, that’s is somebody’s child. A life can be taken just like that! Sad! -
Things that are always tell my kids :
1. Don’t speak or laugh loudly in public places.
2. Shut up and disappear to a crowded place if they notice another group is eyeing them. -
Shopowners who sell knives need to pay more attention to the clientele. If see a few angry youths buying knives one after another, shld call to alert the police.
PC games designers need to do their society duty. Film writers as well. These pple need to learn not to release their own set of stress into the work they are doing. Whatever happen to those simple PAC Man games.
When my #2 was a toddler, he saw my elder boy playing a PC game titles Battle-on. Both ended up more violent and subsequently this game was banned at home.
I feel that whenever thugs are caught, the police shld do a survery of how many of them played violent PC games or watched violent movies, then from there published the results. Let the public decide how much more of these we need in our society. Like smoking, educate the public the dangers. -

\"Murder of teen at Downtown East mistaken for Halloween prank\"
Dunno cry or laugh...
Cry wolf 2 many times... with the recent (backfired) guerilla marketing campaigns... until public also become sceptical liao... -
I read TNP just now.
I cried.
For the victim and his family.
For the innocent children and their families who were fleeing in fear.
Very very sad
