Teenager shot dead during robbery attempt

PETALING JAYA: A former estate overseer shot dead a teenager during a robbery attempt at Sungai Way here today.
He saw the 17-year-old brandishing a parang and demanding money from his housemaid at around 9.40am, and rushed upstairs for his shotgun, deputy head of the criminal investigations department ACP Khaw Kok Chin said.
"The former overseer fired two shots at the teenager who was trying to attack him," Khaw told reporters.
The teenager was hit in the ribs and was pronounced dead on arrival at the medical centre of Universiti Malaya.
Khaw said the teenager had four accomplices, one waiting outside the house and the other three in a car. They fled on hearing the gun shots.
Police are trying to identify the four accomplices, believed to be in between the ages of 17 and 20 plus.
