Two unidentified men on a motorcycle fired four shots at a BMW parked outside a house in Taman Hijau, Kampung Koh, Sitiawan, in the early hours of Friday (Oct 30).
Manjung OCPD Asst Comm Hasbullah Abd Rahman said the incident is believed to have taken place at about 4.16am while the vehicle owner was inside his house.
The owner reportedly heard a loud bang but only discovered four bullet marks on the right-side door of his BMW when he checked the vehicle at about 9am.
Police received a report on the incident at approximately 1.54pm on the same day.
According to Hasbullah, a review of CCTV footage showed two unidentified suspects arriving on a motorcycle before one of them fired several shots at the parked vehicle.
Both suspects then fled the scene.
Police have opened an investigation paper and are probing the case under Section 39 of the Arms Act 1960.
“Efforts to track down the suspects are ongoing,” Hasbullah said in a statement on Saturday (Oct 31).
Members of the public with information about the incident are urged to contact the Manjung district police headquarters at 05-6886222 or its WhatsApp hotline at 017-6828005. They may also provide information at any nearby police station.
