KUALA LUMPUR – A policeman was seriously injured after being hit by a car at a roadblock in Seri Kembangan, Serdang early yesterday.

Serdang police chief ACP AA Anbalagan said in the incident about 1.50am, lance corporal Meor Mohd Asri Meor Azlan Shah, 33, who is attached to the Seri Kembangan Police Station, broke his right leg, and received six stitches on the back of his head besides being injured in both hands.

“He is currently being treated at the Serdang Hospital and is conscious and stable,” he said when contacted by Bernama here yesterday.

Anbalagan said acting on information, a police team managed to track down the vehicle involved and arrested three suspects including a woman, 24, and two men both 29, in front of a restaurant in Taman Serdang Perdana at 3am the same day.
