A FOREIGN man who allegedly hacked off a policeman's right hand during an attack at an apartment in Desa Amanpuri, Kepong, was shot dead.
Selangor Police Chief Datuk Shazeli Kahar said police received a report from a member of the public at 4pm about a man who was reportedly in an unstable condition and behaving aggressively.
After the suspect attempted to attack police officers again, several shots were fired in self-defence in an attempt to apprehend him.
“Several firefighters and MOH personnel also sustained minor injuries. The suspect then fled but was located at a nearby playground at 8 pm,” he told a press conference at Selayang Hospital.
He said the suspect was pronounced dead while being taken to hospital.
"The 26-year-old Lance-Corporal, whose right hand was severed in the attack, was reported to be in stable condition and undergoing surgery at Kuala Lumpur Hospital," he added. - November 11, 2026.
