An individual was chased by an ill-mannered (and possibly unwell) man who couldn’t seem to hide his cough recently. 

Last night, the Tiagong Facebook group posted a short clip sent in by a follower of a bespectacled middle-aged man who kept coughing with his mouth open at City Square Mall.

The user claimed that the man first coughed behind him while on an escalator and followed the user while still coughing all the way until they left the mall. It is unclear what instigated the encounter. 

“Was standing at an escalator step in City Square Mall and heard a cough from a man (unmasked) a few steps behind me. I walked down a step, and he followed, still coughing. I decided to walk down, and he followed. He then coughed behind me before he left the mall via the main entrance,” the caption read.

The user also added that when they were outside, the man challenged him to a fight while continuing to dry cough with wide eyes as captured in the clip. He also allegedly spit on the ground.
