KUALA LUMPUR, May 23 — Two men made off with a Ford Ranger after allegedly pretending to be buyers during a test drive in Gemencheh, Tampin, yesterday — before crashing into another vehicle as they sped away.

The suspects are believed to have contacted the 42-year-old owner after spotting his Facebook advertisement for the black Ford Ranger Raptor. Tampin police chief Superintendent Amiruddien Sariman said the pair arrived at about 5.50pm in a dark-coloured Mini Cooper Cross to inspect and test-drive the pickup truck.

“The suspect contacted the complainant and said he wanted to buy the 4x4 advertised on Facebook,” Amiruddien said in a statement today. But moments after the test drive ended and the owner stepped out of the vehicle, one of the suspects suddenly floored the accelerator and fled with the 4x4. A video uploaded on Threads allegedly showed the stolen pickup ploughing into a multi-purpose vehicle while escaping, sending the MPV spinning before it swerved onto the road shoulder.

Amiruddien said the stolen vehicle was identified as a black Ford Ranger 2.0L Raptor, with estimated losses amounting to RM100,000. Police received a report over the incident at about 8.45pm yesterday. Members of the public with information have been urged to contact the Tampin district police headquarters hotline at 06-4431999 or the nearest police station.
