JAKARTA - Police are still investigating the man who brandished a gun during an argument in the Duren Sawit area, South Jakarta.
Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Yusri Yunus said the weapon used by the man with the initials MFA to scare him was an airsoft gun.
"It's still under investigation. The weapon we found is the airsoft gun. We'll just wait for the results, we'll tell them later. Because this has just been secured and explored," said Yusri, Friday, April 2.
Initially, the Jatanras Polda Metro Jaya team together with Ditlantas Polda Metro Jaya found out about the MFA cowboy action through viral videos on social media.
When they found out about this, the Polda Metro Jaya team immediately traced police number B 1673 SJV. Then, it was discovered that the Fortuner car was located in the Patal Senayan area, South Jakarta.
"Then the team moved there to chase the culprit. When he arrived at the residence, the driver was not found," said Yusri.
However, the ranks of Polda Metro Jaya received information on the whereabouts of MFA from their parents. Until finally, MFA was arrested in a shopping center parking lot.
The incident occurred at around 01.00 WIB, Friday, April 2. The MFA, driving a Toyota Fortuner, hit a motorcyclist at a red light intersection at Jalan Colonel Sugiono, Duren Sawit.
"At that time, he was driving a Fortuner B 1673 vehicle, crossing a road intersection with red traffic light conditions. Then he bumped into a motorcycle that was carrying a woman," said Yusri.
Instead of apologizing, MFA opened the windshield and got angry. A number of witnesses, namely online motorcycle taxi drivers, tried to defend the female motorcyclist trying to stop the MFA vehicle.
What was surprising was that the MFA suddenly pointed a gun at a number of witnesses. This gun point was recorded on the cellphone of one of the witnesses whose video went viral on social media.
"I'll just walk. I'll just walk," said the Fortuner driver, brandishing a gun.
A number of witnesses who helped the female driver get involved in an argument, when they saw the gun pointed, immediately asked the Fortuner driver to leave. They didn't forget to record the Fortuner police number.
"Crazy, crazy. Unplug, unplug. This is what I wrote down, the license plate. Bring a gun. Viralin, viralin!" exclaimed a video recorder.
