Singapore nightclub apologizes after denying entry to an amputee

From the Straight Times:

A popular nightclub has apologised to an amputee after denying him access to its premises when he went there while on a night out with friends.

The 28-year-old, who was on crutches, was turned away at The Butter Factory at One Fullerton.

The club's staff and security said they were worried for his safety and feared he might blame the club if he should hurt himself. They also said the crutches could be used as a weapon.
