Budak lelaki 7 tahun maut jatuh tingkat 10 di Johor

In Johor Bahru's Taman Perling area, a seven-year-old boy died after falling from the 10th floor of a flat while playing, according to the Inspector-General of Police for Johor Bahru Utara, Azrol Anuar Nor. The victim suffered severe injuries to the head, hands, and body, and was found unconscious on the ground below by a local resident. The incident was reported around 5:30 pm on the previous day.

Initial investigations suggest the victim was playing tag with other children in the 10th-floor corridor when he used a bicycle to climb the wall and fell. A post-mortem examination was conducted on the victim on Saturday morning, and forensic experts confirmed the cause of death was a fall from a great height. Police have identified and interviewed four witnesses to complete the investigation, classifying the case as a shocking fatality (SDR).

Residents, especially parents and guardians, are advised to always supervise the movement and activities of children and ensure they do not climb or play near high-risk areas to prevent such unfortunate incidents. Anyone with information related to the incident can contact the Johor Bahru Utara District Police Office hotline at 07-556 3122 to assist the investigation.
