Lahad Datu cops shoot sword-wielding robber dead

Police say the masked suspect refused to surrender.
LAHAD DATU: A 28-year-old Indonesian man was shot dead by the police when he tried to attack them with a sword after he allegedly attempted to break into a house near here yesterday morning.
District police chief Nasri Mansor said the suspect was shot dead during an operation at Palm Heights, near here, at 3.40am.
He was believed to have earlier attempted to break into a house in the area.
“The police who were patrolling the housing estate saw the suspect, dressed in dark clothes, with a mask and flashing a sword. They chased after him but he refused to surrender,” Nasri told reporters.
He said the suspect acted aggressively and swung his sword at a policeman who approached him. The policeman opened fire, hitting the suspect in the chest, to defend himself.
The man was pronounced dead at the scene by a medical team from Lahad Datu Hospital, he said.
Police seized a 74cm sword and a mask.
Nasri said no identification documents were found on the suspect, who was later identified as Mohd Rahmat, who had been convicted of entering the country illegally in 2017.
The suspect was sentenced to six months’ jail and three strokes of the rotan by the court and had been ordered to return to his country.
“However, he is believed to have illegally entered Malaysia again,” he said.
He said the suspect was believed to be involved in 13 cases of robbery and house break-ins. - FMT
