They were reported to be in stable condition at the Kuala Lumpur Hospital. Police will record their statements soon.All three victims were trapped inside the wreckage before they were pulled out by passing motorists.Police are investigating whether the car was speeding prior to the crash and are trying to locate its owner.Chong’s body was taken to the Kuala Lumpur Hospital mortuary for a post-mortem.Met at the mortuary yesterday, Chong’s mother, who refused to be identified, said her son helped his father at the family’s foodstall in Wangsa Maju."He came back home about 10pm on Tuesday and went out two hours later, saying he was going for supper with friends," said the 50-year-old woman."That was the last time I saw him."
