Willis and 24 other individuals visited a mall in Royapettah on Sunday afternoon. While the rest were shopping inside, Willis engaged in a dispute with individuals entering the mall, as per a Times of India report.  Some people allegedly tied his hands and were planning to take him to the Government Royapettah Hospital. However, before they could do so, a team of police officials arrived at the spot and rescued Willis.

After the intervention, the police interrogated him. Shortly after that, his fellow navy sailors also arrived at the scene. The police permitted Willis to accompany his colleagues, and no legal action was taken against him, the TOI report further stated.
