KUANTAN, April 8 — A three-year-old boy sustained facial injuries after reportedly falling out of a moving vehicle at Kilometer 5, Jalan Lipis-Merapoh, yesterday morning.

Lipis district police chief Supt Ismail Man said the incident occurred around 11am while the child was seated in the back of a Proton Iswara Aeroback, driven by his father en route from Kampung Tempoyang to their home in Kampung Berembang.

“Preliminary investigations revealed that the child fell out through the open rear-left window when the 36-year-old driver stopped the car to answer a phone call,” he said.

Unaware of what had happened, the father continued driving and only realised his son was missing upon reaching Kilometer 7. He then attempted to search for his child but was unsuccessful and lodged a police report in Kuala Lipis.

The child, who suffered facial injuries, was discovered by a passerby and brought to the Padang Tengku police station before being taken to Kuala Lipis Hospital for treatment.

The case is being investigated under Section 337 of the Penal Code. Police are urging anyone who witnessed the incident to come forward to assist with the investigation. — Bernama
