One Klang-area gym owner celebrated his birthday yesterday, and he is most certainly counting his lucky stars after a murder attempt on his life failed.

Driving along Jalan Bukit Kemuning yesterday morning, the 45-year-old owner and his 43-year-old employee were driving in a car on their way to procure lights for the unnamed gym.

Police report that a four-wheel drive vehicle pulled up to the men, lowered its left window, and fired several rounds of a semi-automatic gun towards the gym owner’s car. Struck, the car then skidded and came to a halt on the shoulder.

Initially suspecting that the case was merely a traffic accident, police found bullet holes on the vehicle. Inside, they found that the gym owner sustained injuries to the right side of his face, and that his passenger had wounds on his abdomen. Both are stable, and being treated in hospital.

As of yet, no motive for the attack has been suggested.
