Malaysian police shoot dead machete-wielding man who severed officer’s hand
A foreign man who allegedly hacked off a Malaysian policeman’s right hand during an attack at an apartment in Desa Amanpuri, Kepong, was shot dead.
Armed with two machetes, the suspect charged out of a residential unit and attacked police officers, firefighters and health ministry staff at about 7pm on Wednesday.
Selangor police chief Commissioner Shazeli Kahar said the suspect was shot after he was spotted near a playground, not far from the flat, between 7.30pm and 8pm, shortly after injuring the policeman.
