Robber with fake gun found with real one


Lethal weapon: DCP Abdul Hamid briefing reporters on the confiscated assault rifle.

PETALING JAYA: Although his modus operandi is robbing cashiers with a fake handgun, it was the discovery of a real assault riffle fitted with military attachments during his arrest which caught the attention of the police.

It all started on May 5, when a cashier working at a convenience store in Alam Damai 2, Cheras, was robbed by an armed man at 8.45pm.
