Man slashes M'sia police officer, 26, with machete & severs his hand, gets shot dead
The man was later shot dead in self-defence.
On November 11, a 26-year-old Malaysian police officer was severely injured when a foreign man attacked him with two machetes during a disturbance at an apartment complex in Desa Aman Puri, Kepong. The suspect severed the officer's right hand and caused serious injuries to his head and body. Upon arrival, the police found the suspect near a playground.
After a brief pursuit, the attacker was shot and killed by police. The injured officer was rushed to Kuala Lumpur Hospital for surgery and is currently in stable condition. Doctors have reportedly managed to reattach his hand. Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim condemned the attack, emphasizing that any form of violence targeting law enforcement personnel, who are responsible for public safety, is unacceptable.
