Police at Taipei's Datong District received a report this afternoon regarding a disturbance at the Taipei Station underground mall. A foreign man, while paying at a Southeast Asian grocery store, was approached by a woman surnamed He who demanded to 'borrow' his money and tried to take it from the counter. When two bystanders intervened, He allegedly pushed them and threw a water bottle at them. No injuries or financial losses were reported. The police detained He, who has a prior record for fraud, and are investigating the case as a crime of interference with freedom.
