According to reports, the heavy concrete along the road suddenly fell and crashed into a passing vehicle. Residents living around the vicinity were alarmed when they heard loud noises outside. When they went out to take a look, they noticed a car had been badly damaged.
The Star reported that 2 construction workers were killed, while another 2 are seriously injured. The unfortunate driver, who is a Malaysian, was severely injured. The aforementioned 2 workers fell 120m from the construction site and lost their lives on the spot.
“We received a call on the incident at 8:45am and 25 firemen from Cheras, Tun Razak and Hang Tuah were deployed to the scene,” a Kuala Lumpur Fire and Rescue Department spokesperson was quoted as saying.
This is the second SUKE accident this year. The previous accident happened not long ago, on 3rd March.
