Followers Urge Detainment of Person Who Seized Ariana Grande

Loyal fans of Ariana Grande are demanding that a person who breached a barricade and seized the performer during yesterday's Wicked: For Good launch be arrested or deported from Singapore.

Co-star Cynthia Erivo promptly pulled the surprised star away from Mr Wen, who was observed being removed of the gathering by event staff.

Mr Wen shared on Instagram late on Thursday that he was "released after being arrested", though court documents indicated that he was set to appear on Friday morning. It is not clear if he was charged.

"Measures must be taken enforced against him as this is clearly a legal violation," stated an Instagram commenter, in a response to a video Mr Wen uploaded of his behavior.

"You've done this repeatedly... how are you not behind bars?" one Instagram user questioned.

Supporters Voice Worry Over Ariana's Safety

"After everything she's faced... including the Manchester attack, you considered it entertaining to rush the barrier?" commented a further response on Instagram.

Several fans also questioned guards at the gathering for not being adequately prepared; while some demanded online networks to remove Mr Wen's videos.
