Man loses all valuables from Prado vehicle
KOTA KINABALU:
A man who went to meet some friends in Hill Top, Luyang, after withdrawing a large sum of money from a bank in Inanam, found his Toyota Prado four-wheel drive broken into and all his valuables stolen. The incident occurred around 9.30am on March 25 when the victim was having breakfast with some friends. He had parked his vehicle close to the coffee shop. Half an hour later, he returned to his vehicle and found the back window behind the driver’s seat broken. His laptop, Indonesian passport, RM18,000 and three cheque books were missing. Eyewitnesses informed him that a Proton Waja with four men inside had stopped near his vehicle, broke the window and took all his belongings before taking off. The eyewitnesses had also given the suspects’ car plate number to the victim who immediately lodged a police report around 10.15am. Police had also taken close circuit television recording of the incident. Further check on the plate number with the Road Transport Department showed that it was fake. Acting City Police Chief Superintendent Rowell Marong confirmed the incident. He said no arrest had been made and investigation into the case was continuing.
