An 18-year-old motorcyclist was run over by a trailer in a fatal accident at the Middle Ring Road 2 (MRR2) early Monday morning.
According to a news report by The New Straits Times, the 33-year-old lorry driver wasn’t aware that he had run over the victim. Eyewitnesses who were at the location gave chase to the driver, who later turned himself in and lodged a police report.
Ampang Jaya police chief Assistant Commissioner Hamzah Alias said that in the 1.47am incident, the female victim and her friend, who was the pillion rider, were heading home from work when she lost control of her motorcycle, falling on the road before the trailer ran over her.
The victim died on the spot while her 18-year-old friend sustained light injuries.
