Photographer’s bag causes bomb scare

Boy, you really can’t leave your bag unattended these days without it being mistaken for a bomb, huh?

A suspicious bag which was left outside a hotel ballroom in Kuala Lumpur caused quiet a bit of a scare on Wednesday. 

Dang Wangi district police chief ACP Zainol Samah told Bernama that a bomb disposal squad was sent to the scene after receiving a call from the hotel claiming that the bag contained a bomb…only for them to find a camera inside.

Zainol added that the bag belonged to a part-time photographer who was covering an event attended by Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
