Hunt on for man who rammed cops
IPOH: The hunt is on for a man who opened fire at police, rammed through two roadblocks and knocked down a traffic policeman during a chase.
OCPD Asst Comm Sum Chang Keong said the suspect, driving a red Proton Satria Neo, first rammed through a police roadblock in Jalan Sultan Nazrin Shah at 3pm yesterday.
“He was then chased towards Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah where he again rammed through another roadblock,” ACP Sum told journalists.
“Four police motorcycles gave chase. The suspect opened fire and police retaliated in self-defence,” he said, adding that police had not received any reports of anyone getting shot.
“We managed to hit and puncture his tyre as the chase led to Kampung Baru Tambun. He abandoned his car and fled on foot towards the jungle near there.”
ACP Sum said a traffic policeman who was knocked down during the car chase has been hospitalised.
The 26-year-old lance-corporal was chasing the suspect when the suspect swerved and knocked down the policeman’s motorcycle.
