In a separate incident in September, a Bukit Panjang resident pelted a group of cyclists with eggs and stones for allegedly making too much noise at night.

Another resident told Shin Min Daily News that the cyclists were not the first targets — vehicles with loud engines were also attacked in a similar fashion whenever they passed by the estate.

One of the cyclists, a 25-year-old, felt that he did not deserve the harsh treatment and pointed out that the modifications to his electric bicycles are legal.

"When I realised that the culprit was a young man living in a unit on the lower floors, I got angry and scolded him. We also spent an hour cleaning the mess," he said.
