KUALA LUMPUR: A woman was killed and two others seriously injured in a three-vehicle collision on the North-South Expressway early this morning.

The accident occurred at KM438.5 of the PLUS north-bound heading towards Sungai Buaya.

Selangor Fire and Rescue Department assistant director of operations Ahmad Muhklis Mukhtar said they received an emergency call at 6.30 am.

A fire engine from the Bukit Sentosa station arrived at the scene at 6.55 am.

The crash involved two Perodua Myvi cars and a Honda Jazz.

“The first Perodua Myvi was carrying two victims — a 25-year-old man who was trapped and suffered serious injuries, and a 44-year-old woman who was thrown out of the vehicle and pronounced dead at the scene by Ministry of Health (MOH) medical officers,” Ahmad Muhklis said.

A 30-year-old woman in the second Perodua Myvi was also trapped and seriously injured.

A 27-year-old man in the Honda Jazz managed to get out on his own with only minor injuries.

The operation to extricate the trapped victims was completed at 7.13 am.

All victims were subsequently handed over to the MOH for further action.
