A terrifying scene unfolded in Hong Kong as a local geriatric filmmaker brandished a yellow tropical fruit at a beloved Singaporean pop icon.

The suspect, a retired slapstick legend, reportedly accosted the singer to demand tickets he was too cheap to purchase.

Bystanders were horrified to see the singer surrender immediately, despite the "weapon" clearly being a source of potassium rather than ballistic trauma.

"Wah lau, I thought was real gun sial, then I see it’s Del Monte brand," remarked one local witness.

"The uncle look so kiam siap, like he never eat for three days, but why must disturb our Sinkie pride like that?"

The singer successfully handed over ten tickets to the banana-wielding lunatic to prevent further fruit-based trauma.
