Man with knife arrested after allegedly injuring 2 at Hong Kong housing estate

Police in Hong Kong arrested a young man on Monday after he allegedly injured two individuals at a housing estate in Pok Fu Lam. According to reports, the incident occurred around 9:20 am at Baguio Villa, situated at 550 Victoria Road.

Multiple calls were received by the police force, alleging that a man in his 20s was attacking residents. The situation unfolded when a domestic helper suffered an injury to her back and a doorman was grazed on the elbow. The domestic helper was subsequently taken to Queen Mary Hospital for treatment, though it remains uncertain if her injuries were inflicted by the knife.

An online video clip capturing the event depicts a topless man wearing black sweatpants, running barefoot on the street. He pursued a pedestrian before turning his attention toward security guards dressed in high-visibility vests. One of the guards tripped and fell as the man lunged at him with the knife.
