A quarrel broke out at a shop along Orchard Road when the shop owner apparently hit a little girl's hand with a pair of tongs because she had touched some items on sale.
A STOMPer who witnessed the incident, said:
"My family and I were walking around Orchard last night (Dec 25) when we walked past this 3 for $10 shop and happened to chance upon this scene.
"The daughter of a PRC family touched the items in the shop and the shop owner took something which looked like a pair of tongs and hit the girl's hand.
"The father of the girl shouted at and even challenged to fight the shop owner.
"The the mother and grandmother also shouted at the shop owner.
"The shop owner retorted, saying 'She's not supposed to play with these' in Chinese.
"The mother of the girl demanded an apology, but the shop owner just simply walked off.
"The family left immediately after that. Who do your think is the one at fault?"
The video for this story is being rendered.

Chilling might be acceptable but beating a kid who knows nothing is simply too much.
