Anggota polis putus pergelangan tangan ditetak warga asing

A Malaysian police officer has suffered a severed right hand after an attack by a foreign male suspect wielding a knife at a private residence in Desa Aman Puri, Kepong, last evening. Ketua Polis Selangor, Shazeli Kahar, reported receiving a public report at 4 pm regarding the incident where a man was in a critical condition and acting aggressively.

Upon arrival, a team of police officers, along with Malaysia's Bomb Defusal and Rescue Department (JBPM) and Ministry of Health officials, secured the scene. The suspect attacked the 26-year-old Constable from the IPD Gombak motorcycle unit and suffered a severed right hand, in addition to head and body injuries. Shazeli said several bomb squad members and KKM officials also reported minor injuries due to the incident.

The suspect subsequently fled the scene before being apprehended near a nearby recreational park at 8 pm. Upon encountering the suspect, the police attempted to detain him, resulting in the suspect attacking a police officer with a knife, prompting several shots to be fired to neutralize the threat. The suspect was pronounced dead during transport to the hospital.

The incident has also been widely reported on social media, eliciting various reactions from netizens.
