A child who was left alone at home and believed to be trying to jump from the third floor flat in Pandan Mewah here, was rescued by firemen this morning.
Selangor Fire and Rescue Department Operations assistant director Mohd Sani Harul said the boy, aged about nine, was seen trying to jump from the back of the flat after throwing down a bag filled with clothes at about 10.30am.
"A team from the Pandan Fire and Rescue Department was rushed to the location after receiving a distress call at 10.34am, and found the main door of the house was locked, and there was no caretaker.
"However, the rescue team managed to enter the house through the door and persuaded the child not to jump, and brought him to safety," he said when contacted by Bernama here, today.
Mohd Sani said initial investigations revealed the boy stayed at home alone, as his family members were out to work.
He said the operation ended at 11.06am, and the child was handed over to the police for further action. - BERNAMA
