A viral video has been making the rounds online showing a man who somehow got himself stuck inside a gap in a pillar.
The clip, filmed by a passerby, shows firefighters and their trucks already on the scene as the whole thing allegedly happened right next to a fire station.
The man was safely brought down
The Taman Tun Dr Ismail (TTDI) Fire and Rescue Station in Kuala Lumpur confirmed receiving a call about a man, believed to be in his 30s, who was trapped at an MRT pillar in TTDI.
In a statement, the department said that when the team arrived, they found the victim stuck in the pillar beneath the MRT tracks.
Firefighters managed to rescue him with the help of an aerial ladder platform (ALP) from the Sri Hartamas Fire Station before handing him over to TTDI police for further action.
“The operation to lower the man, believed to be Malay, took place around 2:38 AM near the MRT tracks next to the TTDI Fire and Rescue Station,” the statement added.
In a recent development reported by Harian Metro, the Kuala Lumpur Operations Control Centre (PGOKL) said the individual was actually attempting to steal cables.
“According to the police, the individual is suspected of being involved in cable theft activities.”
