Joshua Tan Stands Up To Aggressive Stranger In Sydney; Garners Praise For His Restrained Response

Yesterday (Nov 28), Ah Boys to Men star Joshua Tan, 31, took to Instagram to share an account of an incident that had taken place earlier that day.

Joshua’s currently in Sydney with his fiancée, Zoen Tay, 23, who’s studying there.

"Some stranger came up and did this to me today, thank God [Zoen] was safe in the car. Viewer discretion advised - The following video may cause discomfort,” wrote Joshua, before sharing a short 40-second video of the incident. However, he did not share more details about how the altercation started.

In the video, a man dressed in a pink hoodie can be seen gesturing aggressively, swearing, and yelling insults at Joshua. The situation appeared to be very heated while the couple’s pet dachshund seemed to be whining in fear in the background as well.
