: The police had to fire a shot at the tyre of a Proton Iswara because the driver tried to endanger the lives of policemen who were tailing the vehicle suspected of smuggling 22 plastic drums of petrol in Kampung Pulau Ular Post Office, Pengkalan Kubor, here, yesterday.

As a result, the suspect stopped on the shoulder of the road in an open area near the post and suddenly the suspect reversed the vehicle towards the members who got off the motorcycles to approach him for inspection. “However, the suspect continued driving and fled before the vehicle was found abandoned one kilometre from the scene,“ he said in a statement today.

He said all the 22 plastic drums containing petrol were confiscated and they were believed to be smuggled to a neighbouring country.
