SRI AMAN, March 20: A devastating road accident near Kampung Selepong Jinggau along the Serian-Sri Aman Road left three people dead and five others injured, including children, early this morning.

Fire and Rescue Department (Bomba) Sri Aman responded to the emergency at 8.30am and immediately mobilised a team of firefighters led by PBK I Edwin Jonani to the scene.

Upon arrival, the firefighters confirmed that the collision involved two vehicles, a Proton X70 and a Perodua Alza.

The Proton X70 landed on a ditch in a collision with another vehicle along Serian-Sri Aman Road on March 20, 2026.

The Perodua Alza was completely engulfed in flames, but all three of its occupants, including a woman in her 20s and two young boys aged 4 and 6, survived with minor injuries.
