A Road Transport Department (RTD) enforcement vehicle has been overturned and burnt by angry public after a severe road accident that damaged 10 vehicles at Ayer Tawar, Perak.



An investigating officer of Manjung district police traffic department, by the name of Nurul, told Malaysiakini that 15 people were hurt in the accident with three hospitalised, suffering from severe injuries.



No deaths have been reported so far.



The accident happened this afternoon after school ended at Jalan Beruas-Ayer Tawar involving an RTD enforcement four-wheel drive vehicle, two school buses, two lorries, one motorbike and four cars.



An eyewitness has uploaded an eight-minute video to Facebook showing a group of furious people shouting and throwing objects at the four-wheel-drive vehicle.



Then overturned the vehicle, before two traffic policemen arrived to try to stop them.



However, they failed to defuse the anger and the crowd proceeded to break the vehicle's windows, accompanied by angry shouts of "bakar!" (burn).



After an object was thrown at the overturned four-wheel-drive vehicle, it caught fire, forcing the crowd to draw back.



Soon afterwards, several firemen came and put out the fire.



Malaysiakini is still trying to find out the reason for accident and the public anger.



MORE TO COME. SOON.
