MELAKA: A quarrel between two pupils of a primary school in Ayer Keroh here over an eraser snowballed into panic when it was mistaken for a kidnapping attempt, sparking alarm among parents.
Melaka Tengah OCPD Asst Comm Christopher Patit said the misunderstanding occurred on Monday when a 44-year-old female hawker, whose 11-year-old son was involved in the quarrel, stopped to ask a Year Three pupil why the children were arguing.
