Kuala Lumpur Police Chief, Datuk Rusdi Mohd Isa said, in the incident at 3.45 in the morning, a group of local men armed with pistols and machetes reportedly fought and also fired shots.
"The police rushed to the scene of the incident upon receiving information that they found three bullet casings and two live bullets at the scene of the incident," he said in a statement on Saturday.
