Witness tails fleeing hatchback after attempted theft, helping police make arrest in Sarawak

A vigilant witness played a crucial role in aiding the police to trace and apprehend a suspect involved in an attempted vehicle component theft in Kuching.

The incident, which occurred at a workshop on Jalan Batu Kawa, involved two men whose escape was monitored by the witness using a four-wheel drive, leading to the recovery of their abandoned hatchback.

Padawan district police successfully arrested one suspect, seized vital evidence, and are continuing the investigation to locate the remaining accomplices.

The case is under investigation for attempted theft as per Sections 379 and 511 of the Penal Code.

KUCHING, Sept 25 — A witness who followed a hatchback believed to have been used by two men fleeing an attempted vehicle component theft helped police trace their movements and arrest one suspect here last night.

Padawan district police chief Supt Barry William said the incident occurred at about 8.40am yesterday at a workshop along Jalan Batu Kawa here.

He said the witness spotted two men allegedly attempting to steal components from a vehicle parked outside the workshop.

“A witness noticed two suspicious men trying to steal the components from a vehicle parked outside the workshop before they fled using the hatchback after being confronted.

“The witness, who is the driver of a four-wheel drive (4WD) managed to track down and tail the hatchback, thus helping police trace the suspects’ movements,” he said in a statement.

The hatchback was later found abandoned in Jalan Rantau Panjang.

Police subsequently arrested one of the suspects, a 25-year-old man, at about 9.15pm the same day.

A metal box and car key were also seized to assist investigations.

Police are continuing efforts to track down the other suspect or suspects believed to be involved.

The case is being investigated under Section 379 read with Section 511 of the Penal Code for attempted theft. — The Borneo Post
