Patrol car overturns while trying to avoid monkeys on road
Two traffic policemen were injured in the accident which occurred at a bend on a tarred road which was wet after the rain.
Two traffic policemen in Terengganu were injured when their patrol car overturned while attempting to evade a group of monkeys. The incident occurred near Kampung Kepah around 4:30 pm this afternoon. District police chief Sharudin Abdul Wahab reported that the patrol car swerved to the right to avoid the monkeys, which had suddenly appeared on the road.
The wet tarred road, slick from recent rain, led the vehicle to skid and overturn several times. Lance corporal Amirul Hafiz Ahmad, 26, and corporal Khairil Azlan Abdul Latif, 44, were driving from Simpang Kepah towards Kuala Berang on a routine patrol duty. Amirul, the driver, fractured his left arm, while Khairil sustained injuries to his jaw.
