KUALA LUMPUR – An elderly man sustained injuries after being shot at a restaurant in Jalan Aminuddin Baki, Taman Tun Dr Ismail, on Sunday.

Brickfields district police chief Anuar Omar said the police received a report from the victim about the incident about noon yesterday.

“During the incident yesterday (Sunday), the victim was cleaning the restaurant kitchen about 12.30pm when he felt a sharp pain at his armpit and found a wound at the area. 

“The victim then saw a piece of metal in the shape of a bullet near his feet and went straight to a private clinic for treatment,” he said in a statement yesterday.

According to Anuar, the case is being investigated under Section 37 of the Firearms Act 1960 for the use of firearms and Section 307 of the Penal Code for attempted murder.

He asked those with information regarding the case to contact the Kuala Lumpur police hotline at 03-2115-9999, Brickfields police hotline at 03-2297-9222, or their nearest police station. – Bernama, February 2, 2021
