  "summary": "A 21-year-old motorcyclist was arrested in Kuala Lumpur after riding against traffic and crashing into two participants of the Kuala Lumpur Standard Chartered Marathon (KLSCM) 2026. The incident occurred at around 6.15am on Jalan Munshi Abdullah, where the motorcyclist, carrying a 19-year-old pillion rider, allegedly passed through a road closure marked by cones. Both victims, a 50-year-old woman and a 41-year-old man, suffered injuries – the woman had neck injuries and the man had injuries to his right knee and hand. The motorcyclist tested positive for alcohol with a breath alcohol reading of 164mg/100ml, and both riders were taken to Hospital Kuala Lumpur for further tests. The case is being investigated under specific sections of the Road Transport Act 1987 and the Penal Code.
