Perak Tengah acting police chief DSP Nik Rosdi Nik Yahya said the 64-year-old suspect was remanded to help further investigations.
He said the case is being investigated for attempted murder under Section 307 of the Penal Code in addition to the investigation by the Perak Tengah Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Division for reckless driving causing injury.
“Police are waiting for his blood test results. He was sent to Changkat Melintang Hospital yesterday and his health records show that he has diabetes.
“The suspect’s motive is still being investigated. The suspect’s family was also at the station after being informed of the incident,” he said when contacted today.
