KOTA KINABALU: Two senior citizens on their way home after attending a family birthday were killed in an accident in Penampang near here on Sunday (Oct 22) evening.

The husband and wife, in their 60s, died on the spot after their car was hit by a four-wheel drive (4WD) along Jalan Pintas, close to Padimas Point, at about 6.50pm.

Penampang district police chief Supt Sammy Newton said initial investigations indicated that the couple was believed to be making a U-turn when their car was hit by the other vehicle heading towards Donggongon township.



He said the man driving the 4WD was also seriously injured and taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital for further treatment.

He said the investigation is still ongoing and the case is being investigated under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987.
