HULU SELANGOR: Two members of the Hulu Selangor police's MPV unit rescued a puppy from a drain near a supermarket in Bukit Beruntung here on Saturday.
The Hulu Selangor district police headquarters, in a statement on Facebook, said Sergeant Padrick and Lance Corporal Rodhi were patrolling the area at 6.20pm when the incident happened.
"Members of the public alerted them to a puppy that had fallen into a drain. The two policemen rushed to the scene and rescued the animal."
In the same post, Hulu Selangor police advised the public not to have preconceived notions about the police.
"Sometimes Malaysians are 'traumatised' when they see policemen by the roadside.
"They think that there's a roadblock and that summonses are being issued. They also think policemen are unfriendly and arrogant.
"If we see (the same incident), all of us would stop to help, wouldn't you agree?"
