KUALA LUMPUR: Two men were arrested after a police pursuit from Jalan Wangsa 5 in Bukit Antarabangsa ended in a crash at the Jalan Jelatek traffic light intersection in Setiawangsa today.

The suspects, who were in an Isuzu D-Max pickup truck, were found with equipment believed to be for cable theft.

City Traffic Enforcement and Investigation Department chief Assistant Commissioner Mohd Zamzuri Mohd Isa said preliminary investigations found that the pickup truck's driver, 32, and his 21-year-old passenger had attempted to flee a police inspection.

The chase ended when the driver allegedly lost control and rammed into a Proton Wira, a Proton Persona and a Toyota Harrier at the intersection.
