Guard accused of dozing off kills colleagues

KUALA LUMPUR - A security guard in Malaysia shot dead two of his colleagues after they blamed him of dozing off while on duty.

The incident took place at 5.30 a.m. Friday at the car park of Klang Hospital in Selangor state, Omar Mammah, criminal investigation department acting chief, was quoted as saying by Xinhua.

The guard did not try to escape, but surrendered himself to his supervisor and waited to be arrested at the hospital’s security room.

The two victims, both shot in the chest, were from Kuala Lumpur.

One of the victims had told the guard not to get sleepy while he was at work, resulting in an argument. The accused then pulled out his gun and shot dead his two colleagues, Omar said.
