A person, dressed in crop top, shorts and running shoes, was seen riding on the handrail of a travellator located in the FairPrice supermarket outlet at Bukit Merah Central.
Responses to the photos were negative.
Those who commented said the actions displayed were unsafe as the person was riding up from the ground floor of the supermarket to the second level, and concerns were raised about the hygiene of the handrails.
In response to Mothership's queries, FairPrice confirmed that the incident involving the misuse of the in-store travellator took place on Friday, Feb. 23.
Following the incident, the travellator handles were immediately sanitised.
A FairPrice spokesperson said: "The safety of our customers and employees are our first priority. We are thankful that no injuries were sustained."
"We remain vigilant and are committed to ensuring a safe shopping experience for all our customers across our network."
