Four suspects aged 17 to 24 were arrested on Tuesday (June 9) following investigations into the road stunts, ACP Zamzuri said.

"We advise the public not to participate in any form of street gang activity, including wheelie stunts, as such actions not only endanger the individuals involved but also pose a threat to the safety of other road users," he said in a statement.

"Strict action will continue to be taken against anyone who violates road laws."
