KOTA KINABALU: A man and a woman were hit by a vehicle at Karamunsing yesterday and suffered serious injuries.
They were rushed to Queen Elizabeth Hospital. Two of their companions escaped unhurt.

The incident happened when the 41-year-old Timorese man and a 17-year-old woman together with their friends attempted to cross Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman from the Sacred Heart Cathedral to the bus stop opposite around 9.45am.

Instead of using the overhead bridge, they decided to dash across the road.

They were both hit by a vehicle driven by a 22-year-old youth coming from Sunny Garden who was heading towards Sembulan to have breakfast with his friends.
