Malaysian police draw gun in stand-off with Singapore car driving wrong way at checkpoint

On January 10th, a Malaysian police officer drew his gun during a standoff with a Singapore-registered car driving against traffic at the Sultan Iskandar Building immigration complex near the Johor Bahru border. Dashcam footage shows the car traveling the wrong way through the checkpoint, prompting an officer to approach the vehicle. The driver attempted to flee, reversing and moving forward repeatedly. To prevent the car from escaping, an officer brandished his firearm while another struck the car with a traffic cone. The car eventually sped away, and it is currently unclear if the suspect has been apprehended. A Malaysian home ministry official confirmed the incident occurred last month.
