Bodyguard upset by questioning


GEORGE TOWN: The 37-year-old bodyguard, who shot dead a Datuk businessman and two others at the Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway, was apparently upset when his boss asked him why he had taken out his firearm at a restaurant about two hours before the incident.

Datuk Ong Teik Kwong and his business partner of nine years Lim Boon Leng, both 32, were having coffee and drinks with a male friend at a restaurant on Karpal Singh Drive when the bodyguard, who had started work for Ong that day, suddenly took out his Glock 19 semi-automatic pistol and placed it on the table on Thursday.
