"Seorang lagi rakannya dipercayai turut cedera namun sempat melarikan diri sebelum polis tiba," katanya ketika dihubungi.

Menurutnya, lelaki yang melecur tahap dua hingga tiga di bahagian muka, leher, bahu dan tangan itu dibawa ke Hospital Likas untuk rawatan lanjut.

Kes disiasat mengikut Seksyen 431A Kanun Keseksaan kerana melakukan khianat harta benda awam, katanya.
