An accidental shot from a security guard’s pump gun injured a manager at the bank in Jalan Bandar Baru Rawang yesterday afternoon (27 August).

The incident happened at 1:20pm, when the guard just left the washroom and accidentally dropped his weapon. When he tried to pick it up, he fired a shot by mistake.

According to NST, the shot went through the 57-year-old bank manager’s right arm. He was immediately brought to the Selayang Hospital and reported to be in stable condition.
