KUALA LUMPUR (April 23): Part of the wall of an international school in Taman Tun Dr Ismail (TTDI) (pictured) here collapsed following a landslide on Wednesday morning.
Kuala Lumpur Fire and Rescue Department operations commander Azkhan Hamdan said no one was injured in the incident.
He said the department received a distress call at 7.18am before 15 firemen from the TTDI and Sri Hartamas Fire and Rescue Stations, in three fire engines, were dispatched to the scene.
“Upon arrival, the team found that a section of the wall at the international school had collapsed, believed to be caused by a landslide. The team then conducted a size-up operation to ensure the area was safe.
