I received news earlier today that there are some armed fugitives on the run from the police hiding in our apartment complex. These suspects apparently just committed a robbery at a Karaoke Centre in Kepong. During their getaway, a police patrol car spotted them a gave chase.
After a police chase scene (hollywood style! no less) along the Lebuhraya Damansara-Puchong (LDP) Highway, the suspects had to abandon their Proton Wira after ramming into several cars queuing at the Penchala Toll Plaza.
One of the suspects was quickly arrested as he was clumsily trying to extract himself out from the car heavily laden with looted audio equipment. Two others struck out on foot into Flora Damansara 2 blocks (Blocks A and B). Later, they were seen climbing the slopes behind Flora Damansara 2 blocks escaping towards the higher level blocks of Flora Damansara 1.
Differing views here, according to TV3 report, one of the two escaped suspects were later arrested in one of the restaurants in Flora Damansara. On the other hand, according to management’s sources, the arrested suspect was found hiding in SYABAS Pump Room just outside Flora Damansara.
Flora Damansara security service provider – Inland Security is in close cooperation with the Police in conducting strict checks on all vehicles entering and exiting Flora Damansara apartment complexes. I appeal to everyone in Flora Damansara to please give full cooperation for the sake and safety of the community.
These information are sketchy at best at the moment. As I manage to get more info, more updates will be made available.
PS – I am told that TV3 news crew was around also earlier at Flora Damansara. Tonight’s Bulletin Utama, keep your eyes peeled!
