A food rider sustained injuries to his lips, ribs, and legs after he was physically assaulted by a road bully at the traffic light intersection along Jalan Langat-Klang, Selangor, on 1 September.
The 21-year-old victim also suffered losses of RM250 after the ‘cover set’ of his LC135 motorcycle was damaged during the altercation around 7.15pm.
South Klang police chief Assistant Commissioner Cha Hoong Fong said the incident happened after the delivery rider honked at the Proton Saga driver for driving recklessly and nearly colliding with him.
There were two other men in the car at the time of the incident. The driver, feeling dissatisfied, confronted the rider and damaged the motorcycle before physically assaulting him.
