A 66-year-old man died after he was shot three times at point blank range after an argument during a drinking session in Perak, Malaysia, on Friday night (June 1).

The incident occurred at the parking area outside a restaurant in Kampung Koh, Sitiawan, at around 10.50pm.

According to The Star, onlookers saw Chu Phan Hoo, 61, shoot chicken farmer Ling Lu King multiple times with a double barrel shotgun.
