KOTA KINABALU: A trapped elderly couple in the flood in Penampang near here could not ask for a better person to save them when the district police chief himself came to their rescue on Monday (July 1).
Supt Sammy Newton and his men had intended to check out the situation at Kampung Kolopis, one of the worst hit by the flood, when they saw that a four-wheel vehicle had fallen into a hole near the Kasigui roundabout with its back pointing towards the sky at about 6.30am.
