Nigel Ng, known for his Uncle Roger persona, claims he was assaulted while walking back to his home on Friday.
Angry Stranger: The London-based Malaysian comedian posted about the incident to his Instagram stories where he says a “random guy” punched him in the face.
  • In the clips, Ng points to his bleeding lip and a small bruise under it.
  • “I’m guessing probably Covid racism-related? Which is really, really sh*tty. Good thing he wasn’t a great fighter because it could’ve been a lot worse, I could be in the hospital,” he says.
  • Ng explains how the man parked his bike on the street, before coming angrily at him with his fist.
  • When the comedian asked the attacker who he was, he replied, “You know what you did,” which baffled him further.
Police Fan: Ng states he filed a police report and worries about his safety walking back to his home, since to him, the “signs pointed to this being a random Covid racism attack.”
  • “I didn’t know the guy, and I don’t think he knew who I was either. I think he was just trying to punch an Asian face,” he continues.
  • On the bright side, Ng is pleased to find that the officer who took his statement is a fan and knows about Uncle Roger and his infamous egg-fried rice reaction videos.
  • He goes on to warn his followers to stay safe and how incidents like these “shouldn’t happen in this day and age.”
  • Ng then cracks more jokes about how he had just come from a dentist appointment and was more worried about his tooth getting chipped.
  • The comic also complains about how the officers didn’t take their shoes off when they arrived and he would have to vacuum after them later.
  • Opting to stay positive, he writes, “Can’t wait to talk about this on stage [going to] turn it into a funny standup bit.”
