KUCHING (Dec 1): A 54-year-old motorcyclist died after his bike is believed to have been rear-ended by a car at KM80 Jalan Kuching-Sri Aman around 10.50pm last night.
In a statement today, Sarawak Traffic Investigation and Enforcement chief Supt Alexson Naga Chabu said the deceased suffered serious head injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics from Serian Hospital.
“During the accident, the deceased identified as Armani Tangga from Kampung Antauan Keropok, Serian, was flung onto the car’s windshield before he fell onto the road,” said Alexson.
He said the driver of the car, a 36-year-old from Kampung Telagus, Simunjan, and his 24-year-old male passenger did not suffer any physical injuries.
The preliminary investigation showed that the weather at the time of the accident was fair and took place along a straight section of road where there was no street lighting.
Armani’s body has been transferred to the Serian Hospital mortuary for a post-mortem.
The case is being investigated under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987.
