Legendary singer Jenny Tseng shared on social media a harrowing encounter involving four knife-wielding men in Hong Kong.
In a recent Facebook post, Tseng, 70, wrote: "Robbery on Silverstrand Beach Road, quite scary".
Detailing the incident in the comment section, the Macau-born diva said that she was driving home with her sister after work when a red car suddenly blocked their path.
Four men, each armed with a knife, emerged from the vehicle and approached Tseng's car.
"My sister told me to step on the gas. I reversed the car because I knew that if I drove forward, I would run over them. I didn't dare do so!" she continued.
Tseng, who's based in Hong Kong, said that all she could do in the moment was honk while reversing her vehicle. She also heard the sound of knives slashing on the hood of her car.
After failing to get Tseng and her sister out of the car, the four men quickly fled the scene.
The artiste added that she lodged a report at a police station shortly after, but the culprits were never caught.
On the day of the incident, Tseng claimed that no neighbours paid attention despite her honking very loudly along the road.
"People are truly the scariest," she wrote.
The singer also said that she was lucky the robbers were armed with knives and not a gun, for she would not have come out of the situation unharmed if that were the case.
Tseng's post sparked concerns among netizens, who questioned if this was an act of retaliation as she had been actively speaking out against Sing! China for allegedly mistreating late Hong Kong-American singer Coco Lee.
However, Tseng quickly shut down further speculations and clarified that the incident happened in 1983.
