SHAH ALAM, June 4 — Five people, including two children, had a harrowing ordeal when the cars they were travelling in were hit by a falling tree along Jalan Kapar Batu 6, Klang, near here today.
Selangor Fire and Rescue Department operations assistant director Ahmad Mukhlis Mokhtar said six firefighters and a fire engine from North Klang Fire and Rescue station were mobilised for the rescue operation after they received a distress call at 3.10pm.
