KUALA LUMPUR – A man tried to jump off from the 18th floor of an apartment at Section U2, Shah Alam early this morning after his girlfriend did not answer his call.
The Selangor Fire and Rescue Department Director, Norazam Khamis said that his team received a distress call on the attempted suicide at 3.35 am.
A team of firefighters from the Kota Anggerik Fire and Rescue Station was rushed to the location.
