KUALA LUMPUR, March 12 —  Six female police officers were injured after their Land Rover crashed and overturned on Jalan Mahameru here, this morning.

The driver of the vehicle, a male officer, escaped unharmed in the 8.15am incident.

Sentul district police chief Assistant Commissioner R. Munusamy said the overturned vehicle was part of a three-car convoy heading towards the contingent headquarters in the city.

"They were on their way  to attend a Light Strike Force(LSF) course when the incident occurred,” he said.

Several ambulances brought the victims to Hospital Kuala Lumpur for treatment.
