Fallen trees hit six vehicles in Selangor, no casualties reported

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 29 — Five fallen tree incidents were reported at several locations in Selangor from yesterday afternoon to last night, affecting six vehicles that were struck by trees or branches, with no casualties reported.

Selangor Fire and Rescue Department assistant director of operations Ashrul Riezal Asbar said the first incident occurred at Jalan MR 1/6, Rawang, at 4.40pm, when a tree belonging to the Selayang Municipal Council fell onto three vehicles.

“The vehicles involved were a Hyundai Santa Fe, Proton Iriz and Perodua Axia. A team from the Batu Arang Fire and Rescue Station arrived at 4.54 pm, with four personnel and a Fire Rescue Tender (FRT) deployed,” he said in a statement yesterday.

He said the second incident occurred at 5.05pm at the Education Quarters in Persiaran Indera Wawasan, Pusat Bandar Puchong, when a tree fell onto a Toyota Vios.

A team from the Puchong Fire and Rescue Station arrived at 5.14pm. The operation was brought under control at 5.16 pm and concluded a minute later, with seven personnel involved, he said.

Meanwhile, a fallen tree incident was reported by a member of the public on the Threads platform at 5.10pm along the Kerinchi Link Expressway, from Bangsar towards Bukit Damansara.

A post by Threads user @rmasyraf showed a fallen tree on the road and rescue personnel at the scene.

However, further details of the incident, including the number of vehicles affected, could not be obtained as the Kuala Lumpur Fire and Rescue Department had not received any report.

Ashrul Riezal said two more incidents were reported in the evening. At 6.44pm, a tree branch fell onto a Honda CR-V at Jalan DM 3/7, Taman Desa Rawang, while at 6.49pm, a tree fell onto a Proton Saga at Akasia Apartment, Jalan Wawasan 2/3, Puchong.

“For the incident at Akasia Apartment, a team from the Puchong Fire and Rescue Station arrived at 6.55pm, with seven personnel and an FRT deployed. Both reports stated that there were no casualties, but the times when the operations were brought under control and concluded were not specified,” he said.

Overall, the four incidents reported to the fire and rescue department involved six vehicles, while the fifth incident along the Kerinchi Link Expressway was known through a public post on Threads. The total number of vehicles affected in all five incidents could not be confirmed. — Bernama

吉隆坡，10月29日讯——从昨天下午到昨晚，雪兰莪州多个地点共报告了五起树木倒塌事故，六辆汽车被树木或树枝砸中，但没有人员伤亡报告。

雪兰莪州消防救援局行动助理主任阿什鲁·里扎尔·阿斯巴尔表示，第一起事故发生在下午 4 点 40 分，地点位于拉旺 Jalan MR 1/6，当时属于士拉央市议会的一棵树倒在了三辆车上。

“涉事车辆包括一辆现代圣达菲、一辆宝腾伊瑞斯和一辆第二国产车Axia。峇都阿朗消防救援站的一个小组于下午4点54分抵达现场，出动了四名人员和一辆消防救援车，”他昨天在一份声明中说。

他说，蒲种消防救援站的一个小组于下午5点14分到达现场。行动于下午5点16分得到控制，并在1分钟后结束，共有7名人员参与行动。

与此同时，下午 5 点 10 分，一名公众人士报告称，在 Kerinchi Link Expressway 沿线（从 Bangsar 往 Bukit Damansara 方向）的 Threads 站台上发生了一起树木倒塌事故。

用户 Threads 用户 @rmasyraf 发布了一张照片，照片显示路上有一棵倒下的树，救援人员正在现场。

然而，由于吉隆坡消防救援部门尚未收到任何报告，因此无法获得有关该事件的更多细节，包括受影响的车辆数量。

阿什鲁·里扎尔 (Ashrul Riezal) 表示，当晚又报告了两起事件。下午 6 时 44 分，在 Taman Desa Rawang 的 Jalan DM 3/7 处，一根树枝掉落到一辆本田 CR-V 上；而下午 6 点 49 分，在蒲种旺旺山 2/3 路的 Akasia Apartment 处，一棵树掉落到一辆 Proton Saga 上。

“在 Taman Desa Rawang 发生的事件中，Rawang 消防救援站的一个小组于下午 6 点 55 分到达现场，部署了 8 名人员、一辆 FRT 和一辆紧急医疗救援服务 (EMRS) 车辆。

“关于阿卡西亚公寓的事故，蒲种消防救援站于下午6点55分派出7名人员和1个快速反应小组抵达现场。两份报告均指出无人伤亡，但并未具体说明行动何时得到控制并结束，”他说道。

总体而言，向消防救援部门报告的四起事故共涉及六辆车，而第五起发生在克林奇连接高速公路的事故则是通过Threads上的公开帖子得知的。所有五起事故中受影响车辆的总数尚无法确认。——马新社
