4WD driver deliberately knocks down cop after getting summons
PETALING JAYA: Angry at being summoned for illegal parking, a motorist not only tore the road tax disc of his vehicle in front of a policeman but knocked him down as well.
Shouting curses, the 36-year-old man had rushed back to his Isuzu 4WD which was obstructing part of Jalan Kenari in Puchong Jaya at 3.15pm on Friday.
After failing to convince Kons Norzaharuddin Hashim, 24, not to issue the summons, he got into the vehicle, peeled off the disc from the windscreen and tore it into bits.
He then drove into the policeman before speeding off.
Subang Jaya OCPD Asst Comm Mohd Fuad Talib said Kons Norzaharuddin was on his crime beat in the area when he spotted the illegally-parked 4WD.
“As there was no one inside whom he could ask to remove the vehicle, Kons Norzaharuddin proceeded to write a summons.
“When he was jotting down the number plate, he heard the vehicle owner shouting at him.
“When attempts to coax the policeman to not issue the summons failed, the owner rushed into his vehicle and took out the road tax disc and tore it in front of Kons Norzaharuddin.
“He then started the engine and knocked down the Kons Norzaharuddin before speeding off,” ACP Mohd Fuad told reporters after attending a Rakan COP function and crime prevention dialogue with residents of Bandar Kinrara Puchong.
Kons Norzaharuddin is due to undergo a minor operation on both legs at the University Malaya Medical Centre.
Police have established the identity of the driver and are currently looking for him.
