"A team from the Shah Alam Fire and Rescue Department comprising eight personnel, along with a fire engine and an Emergency Medical Rescue Services (EMRS) vehicle, were despatched to the scene and arrived nine minutes later.
"The operations commander said members of the public had already pulled the man from the tracks before rescuers arrived."
