Three alleged gang members were arrested by police after a high-speed car chase in Selangor, Malaysia on August 22. The three men aged between 26 and 27, were believed to be members of the notorious 08 Gang.

Local media reports that the suspects were first identified by police as acting suspiciously inside a car near a restaurant at about 2:30 a.m. Police ordered them to step out of the vehicle but they avoided police inspection by reversing their car and escaped. Police then began an almost one hour-long car chase with the suspects on a highway. The suspects opened fire at police several times during the car chase before their vehicle hit another car, crashed into a road divider and came to a halt. The suspects then tried to escape on foot but were apprehended by police.

Police said one of the suspects is related to four criminal cases and the three of them were on the wanted list of the Klang police headquarters.
