Suspected rustler shot dead after attacking cops in Machang

MACHANG: A suspected cattle rustler was shot dead after a 33-year-old man attacked a police patrol with a sharp weapon in Kampung Joh, Labok, early Monday (Sept 25) morning.

Kelantan deputy police chief DCP Mohd Ali Tamby said in the 4.30 am incident, a patrol car on duty from the Machang district police headquarters received a public complaint that there was a suspicious white Toyota Vios at Kampung Joh in Labok, Machang."Aware of the police presence, the car sped away and was chased along Machang road towards Kota Bharu while the police patrol used a loudhailer calling for the suspects to stop,” he said today.

"When the officers in the patrol car alighted to apprehend the suspects, the driver of the car emerged to attack one of the policemen with a knife, prompting police to holler a warning before firing several shots at the suspect’s legs in self-defence, but the man jumped into the patrol car and fled towards Kota Baru," he said, adding that the accomplice, a 43-year-old man, was arrested at the scene.
