A man in Malaysia who killed 2 police officers acted on his own, a minister says

The man who assaulted a police station in Malaysia and murdered two officers was a loner and is thought to have acted independently despite potential connections to the Jemaah Islamiyah extremist organization, according to the home minister of the country on Saturday. The man entered the police station in the southern Johor state close to Singapore during the early hours of Friday carrying a machete.
