Early this morning (10 Dec), authorities received reports that two men had been injured, believed to have been shot while driving along Jalan Rasah towards the Port Dickson Toll Plaza.

A passer-by captured a video showing one of the men slumped in the driver’s seat of a white Perodua Myvi, which later appeared in a BuletinTV3 report. One of them is believed to have been shot in the abdomen, while the other sustained an injury to the arm.

Shooting incident allegedly tied to gang activities

In the video, bloodstains were visible on the outside of the car and across the passenger seat, indicating the seriousness of the situation.

Earlier on, another man dining at a mamak stall in Seremban was also shot to death. Just this year, Malaysia has seen a rise in gun-related shootings, which really makes us wonder why these incidents are happening so frequently. With strict gun laws in place, how are people still managing to get hold of firearms? What more can we do to keep ourselves safe?
