Police have arrested three local men in connection with a fatal hit-and-run accident in Port Dickson, Malaysia, where a 46-year-old firefighter was killed. According to the Port Dickson police chief, the driver of the Toyota Vios and two friends were allegedly involved in a plot to hide the car and remove its license plates after the incident.
On October 27, at around 8:05 am, a 46-year-old motorcyclist was traveling from Telok Kemang towards Port Dickson when the car made a U-turn, causing the motorcyclist to crash into the vehicle and sustain serious injuries. The victim died while receiving treatment at Port Dickson Hospital. The driver fled the scene, but was later arrested at the Serdang police headquarters.
His two friends were subsequently apprehended in Puchong. The car lacked a valid license, and the vehicle's road tax and insurance were expired. The case is being investigated under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987, and the three men will appear in court today.
