MIRI, Oct 14 — A 16-year-old student was killed after being struck by a car while crossing the road near SMK Luar Bandar Miri in Bekenu on Tuesday.
Miri police chief ACP Mohd Farhan Lee Abdullah said the accident occurred at about 1.10pm when a car driven by a 46-year-old local woman, travelling from Miri towards Bakong, allegedly struck the student.
“The student was pronounced dead at the scene by a medical assistant from Tun Abang Haji Openg Bekenu Health Clinic,” he said in a statement on Tuesday night.
