BUKIT MERTAJAM: A 16-year-old student was arrested after he attempted to attack a policeman manning the inquiry desk at the Machang Bubok police station near here.
Quick action by another policeman, who fired a warning shot, averted the parang-wielding youth from attacking his colleague.
The policeman asked the youth to drop his weapon and surrender in the 8.45pm incident on Monday. No one was injured in the incident.
The Form Four student, believed to be mentally unstable, was later admitted to the Bukit Mertajam Hospital for observation.
It is learnt that the youth went berserk after finding out that his elder brother was arrested on Sunday for suspected drug and motorcycle theft cases.
Central Seberang Prai OCPD Asst Comm Mohd Anil Shah, who confirmed the incident, said the case would be investigated under Section 307 of the Penal Code for attempted murder. - Sumber
