Hi all VW Golf budddies, I just got back from Police station. I am OK except for a minor cut trying to hold back the knife pointed to my neck. Thank you for all your concerns.
It was 8:15 pm and I was parking behind Rock Cafe near the open air place after turning right at Kakimoto. I parked there many times before. Just when I open the door, a man ran from behind my car and stuck a knife near my throat and that's when I got the cut trying to hold the knife back. Then another accomplice came with a Rambo knife. They were threatening by pointing the knife in and out near my body asking me to be quiet and hand over everything and start back the car. At this point I was assessing whether to fight or run without starting the car. I think I made the wiser choice for I could be lying in a pool of blood there and with the car gone too! they pulled me out, shove me aside and speed off. They got my wallet, my iphone, my watch, my oakleys and GPS.
I ran straight to the shop where I usually wash my car next to Kakimoto and called the police. I didn't know them that well to ask for help chasing the car and with my bloody hands, they were also in shock. Talked to the police , they put it over their radio to all patrols in Selangor to look out for my stolen car. Within 10 mins a patrol car came over and after explaining the scenario followed them to lodge a report at Sunway police station.According to police this is a serious offence and they can be jailed up to 20 years.
I am very tired and distress from this armed violation. Will talked about more tomorrow, the horror have not sunked in. My wife and kid is just happy to see me in one piece.
So watch out friends, this could be a syndicate work according to police. Incase anyone asking, they are Malays in their 20's with caps. Thin, one is about 5' 6'' and other one is about 5'9''.
Anyway, my car is Tornado Red SE, with 18'' Detroits and sunroof. Mileage 22+K km No is/was WSG 3539. Everything standard except for some tell-tale signs: White rear Ultra Racing ARB and Rear Brace. Triangle of side mirrors are carbon fiber stickered. A K&N sticker on the engine cover. LED light inside and also for puddle lights. Red GTI sticker on the front of glove compartment. Road Tax just renewed,expiry 11/08/2010. Chassis no WVW*********12774
Police has blacklisted the car, and says car maybe in KL or either sent to Penang or JB. Please lookout for it bros! Thank you, now have a meeting to attend and sort out all the mess.
