KUALA LUMPUR: Two men suspected of stealing cables were arrested after the car they were travelling in crashed into a drain while fleeing from police in Taman Sri Watan, Ampang, yesterday.
Ampang Jaya police chief ACP Khairul Anuar Khalid said police received a tip-off from the public at about 5.53am.
He said a police patrol spotted a blue Perodua Aruz without registration plates parked along Jalan Watan 8. The driver attempted to flee when police arrived, prompting a chase that ended when the car crashed into a drain.
"Both men in the vehicle were arrested," he said in a statement today.
