A 26-year-old woman in Kuala Lumpur was hit by a van while crossing the road and was dragged for over 10 metres.
Her mother witnessed the terrifying scene and burst into tears after seeing her daughter being hit by the vehicle.
Due to her excessive grief at the scene, the mother became exhausted, and she could only leave the scene with the help of her relatives and friends. The accident occurred yesterday (14 September) around 12:30 PM at Jalan Kuchai Maju 13 in Kuala Lumpur.
The vehicle was driven by a 25-year-old man
Head of the Kuala Lumpur Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Department, Assistant Commissioner Mohd Zamzuri Mohd Isa, said that a CAF Kingo XMQ van, which was driven by a 25-year-old local man, exited the three-way intersection before hitting the victim who was crossing the road.
The fatal accident caused the victim to suffer serious head injuries, and she was later pronounced dead on the scene after medical personnel from the Kuala Lumpur Hospital (HKL) reached the scene, as reported by China Press and Kosmo!
The 25-year-old driver, on the other hand, did not suffer any injuries, according to Mohd Zamzuri. Earlier, an image showing crowds gathering at the accident scene circulated on social media, but the image did not provide further details.
This matter is currently being investigated under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987.
