The Toyota Innova car had an accident after crashing into a truck on the Tangerang Toll Road that goes to Jakarta, and as a result, the car suffered a severe fire.

On Monday (7/8/2023), the incident caused the Innova car driven by a driver named Waryi to catch fire after hitting the back of a truck. Luckily, the driver exited the vehicle through the glass door before his burns became severe.

Kompol Suwito from the Jakarta-Tangerang Toll Road PJR (Janger) Head Office confirmed that the Innova driver survived and only suffered minor burns. The driver was rushed to Siloam Hospital for further medical treatment.

The accident occurred at kilometer 23+300 of the Janger Highway, which goes to Jakarta, at around 05.45 WIB in the morning. An Innova car with police number A-1864-ZS, driven by Waryi, was going from Merak to Jakarta. Upon arriving at the crash site, the Innova suddenly crashed into the back of the truck. It is suspected that the Innova driver was not careful in controlling his vehicle.

Suwito explained that after hitting the truck, the two vehicles touched each other and eventually hit the road divider, which caused the Innova to catch fire between lanes 1 and 2 facing east. This incident shows the need for vigilance in driving and anticipation of situations on the road.

Minimarket robbery by employees in Rawalumbu, Bekasi

On Wednesday (2/8/2023), a theft occurred at a mini market on Jalan Kampung Rawa Roko RT 03/RW05, Bojong Rawalumbu Village, Rawalumbu District, Bekasi City. Surprisingly, the head of the shop, Chandra Satriyanto, planned the robbery.

Kompol Sukadi, East Bekasi Police Chief, revealed that Chandra designed the robbery scenario. He took this desperate step to pay off his wife’s debt. In this scenario, there are five suspects involved and coordinated by Chandra. Apart from Chandra is A, Chandra’s wife, who is still at large, and Nana Supriyatna, Indra Dwi Baskoro, and Subuh Superman, acting as executors.

“The motive was an economic problem. C admitted he designed the robbery scenario to pay off the artisan debt his wife was participating in,” said Sukadi on Monday (7/8/2023).

On the night of the robbery, the perpetrators, Nana, Subuh, and Indra, arrived at the mini market where Chandra worked. Nana guards outside while Subuh and Indra go inside and threaten Chandra, who already knows about the plan.

The scenario continues, where Chandra is asked to open the store safe and hand the cash to the robbers. In this action, cash amounting to IDR 40 million was successfully robbed.

In order not to arouse suspicion, Chandra immediately reported this incident to the police. The police responded to the report by directly visiting the scene.

“On that night, C had reported this incident, and we found several suspicious things there,” said Sukadi.

During the investigation and examination of witnesses at the location, witness D, a colleague of Chandra’s, gave suspicious information about the behavior of Chandra and the robbers.

“Witness D is suspicious of the suspect because it seems the suspect gave the code about the location of the safe by winking,” added Sukadi.

As a result of their actions, the perpetrators were charged with Article 365 of the Criminal Code concerning theft with violence. They face up to 12 years in prison.

A Mineral Water Truck Loses Control, Resulting in a Serial Accident of 8 Vehicles in Cianjur, West Java

On Wednesday (2/8/2023), a series of accidents involving eight vehicles on Jalan Perintis Kemerdekaan, Cianjur, West Java resulted in one motorcyclist’s death.

The Head of the Cianjur Police Traffic Unit, AKP Anaga Budiharso, explained that this incident started when a truck carrying mineral water allegedly experienced a problem with the braking system.

The truck was on its way from Sukabumi to Cianjur at high speed. When he reached Jalan Perintis Kemerdekaan, it was suspected that the truck’s brakes had failed and caused the driver to lose control.

The mineral water truck first hit the house’s fence and several vehicles in front of it. The accident involved three trucks, one minibus, and three motorbikes.

Anaga revealed that the truck that got out of control went through a red light and collided with various vehicles, including trucks, minibusses, and motorcyclists. Finally, the car overturned into the fields.

Police have asked for statements from witnesses, including the minibus driver and the truck driver who was involved in the accident. An investigation is underway to clarify the exact cause of this accident. Eyewitnesses also reported that the truck was out of control and moving quickly.

“I screamed for other drivers to avoid, but the truck had already hit the minibus, and a female motorcyclist was pinned between the truck and the minibus,” said witness Agus (34), owner of a tire repair shop.

The truck did not stop immediately after hitting eight vehicles but continued for 700 meters until it fell into the rice fields.

“I saw that there was one woman who died, and three other people were seriously injured,” he added.
