Fly-by shooting apparently a warning over what is believed to be a misunderstanding over business matters.

Two men on a motorcycle fired 25 shots towards the entrance of a popular entertainment centre in Bukit Bintang last night, shocking the patrons and members of the public nearby.

Preliminary police investigation revealed that the men opened fire at the centre at 10.50pm, apparently as a warning over what is believed to be a misunderstanding over business matters.

Kuala Lumpur CID chief Rusdi Mohd Isa said in a statement today that the police recovered 25 spent bullet casings at a parking area about 30 metres from the entrance to the centre.

According to Rusdi, four employees of the centre were outside the entrance and reception area at the time of the incident.

He said that a member of the public, who was outside the entrance at that time, claimed he heard several shots being fired from the area of the car park.

No one was injured in the incident and the suspects immediately fled the scene.

No arrests have been made so far.

“We have yet to establish a motive for the shooting,” Rusdi said, adding that the police were investigating the case under Section 39 of the Arms Act 1960 for discharging arms outside a shooting range.
