Two killed in freak car mishap at shopping mall in Kota Baru
By SYED AZHAR


KOTA BARU: Two shoppers were killed after a runaway car in an open air parking lot of a mall smashed through a retaining wall before plunging down three stories onto an escalator.

Another shopper was seriously injured in the freak accident that occurred at 4.45pm when the mall in Jalan Hamzah was packed with weekend patrons.

Nurain Said, who was driving the car when it plunged, miraculously survived the 54m fall.

The dead have been identified as trainee nurses Siti Nuramira Shamsuddin, 19, and Siti Nurdiana Azman, 18, from a local college. Both died on the spot after being hit by falling debris.

District OCPD Asst Comm Zahruddin Abdullah said the first driver of the car – identified only as Sabri – had earlier got out of the vehicle, which had stalled at the parking lot.

He said Sabri then told his 17-year-old sister Nurain to get behind the wheel while he pushed the car in an attempt to jumpstart the engine.

ACP Zahruddin said while Sabri was pushing the car, the engine suddenly started, causing the car to lunge forward and smash into the retaining wall, which also served as the building’s ventilation airway.

He said Siti Nuramira who was on the second floor of the building and Siti Nurdiana who was standing on the ground floor, close to the escalator, could have died after being crushed by concrete debris.

Nikel Khor,
Really gets you thinking...

♥Ma3HaR♥,
I didn't take the video. Credited the person who did in the post.

Of Tr@vels, 3nvironment and bl@bl@bl@,
It came out in the papers before I think. Trying to jump start the car. Underaged girl was in the drivers seat with no experience. This was the outcome. This was the incident if I'm not mistaken.

Yes it happened because they were trying to jump start the car and the car jerked forward and crashed through the walls of that shopping mall.

It came out in The Star

I think the dude who does CPR on the lady is the one that kills her...
That is not the way to do CPR...
He pressed the wrong spot...
He press like molesting the breasts...
He knows nothing about 1st aid...
The way he press might break the ribs and make internal injury...
He check the pulse on the right side? The heart is on the left side dude. Should check on the left side.
Last but not least... He SHOULD NOT do CPR on her because who knows if anything crushes her and punctured her internal organ? If u press again and again, the blood flows out more and the internal injury will get worse...

What they must do is... Leave a space for the lady, only 1 or 2 inspect her injury, and wait for paramedic to come...

sebastian, u are right, it feels like that guy is just dry humping her. the guy doesn't even do it with rhythm. by the looks of that much of blood, im sure the girl has lost lots of blood or already unconcious. the guy is ignorant and thought he could be a hero, i bet. sad for these people to exist

Unknown said...

Yeah agree with Sebastian, the guy doesn't know what is CPR mean and for. I know he was trying to help but he wasn't making any good to the victim. The posture that he was doing it and the way he pressed on it wasn't right.
And Sebastian... doesn't matter if you check the pulse on left or right.. At least he got the right spot for the pulse checking.
