Cops on the hunt for four suspects after high-speed chase in Seremban

SEREMBAN: Police are looking for four men who escaped on foot after abandoning their car, which crashed following a high-speed police chase.

Seremban police chief Asst Comm Arifai Tarawe said the four in a Honda Jazz were first spotted near a hypermarket in Senawang around 2.40am on Tuesday (Oct 17).

He said the car’s driver suddenly stepped on the accelerator and drove towards Rembau.

“However, the driver lost control of the car along Jalan Lee Poon and crashed. The four then escaped,” he said in a statement.

He said anyone with information on the four individuals can contact investigating officer Insp Norhasikin Hashim at 017-2441954 or the district police station at 06-6033222.

The case is being probed under Section 186 of the Penal Code for obstructing a public servant from discharging his or her duties.

Offenders can be jailed for up to two years or fined up to RM10,000 or both upon conviction.
