Kwun Tong man slashed, found unconscious on street

Summary

A wounding case was reported in Kwun Tong at about 1:17am on November 13, when police received a report of a bloodied man near Fu Yan Street and Tung Yan Street, with one account placing him outside 18 Fu Yan Street. Officers found the injured man with a wound to his left forearm, and he was sent unconscious to Queen Elizabeth Hospital before later regaining consciousness after treatment. Investigators found a blood trail, bloodstains and a blood-soaked jacket leading toward Kin Fung Mansion, and one line of inquiry is that the victim had earlier argued with someone at a bar on Hong Ning Road before being attacked in a stairwell.

Key Points

  • Police said the case was reported at around 1:17am on November 13 in Kwun Tong, near Fu Yan Street and Tung Yan Street.
  • The victim was found bleeding with an approximately 8-centimetre wound on his left forearm and was taken unconscious to Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
  • HK01 reported police believe the man argued with someone at a bar on Hong Ning Road before going to Kin Fung Mansion.
  • Investigators found blood on steps near the entrance of Kin Fung Mansion, plus a blood trail, gloves and a bloodstained jacket nearby.
  • Police are reviewing nearby CCTV footage and are searching for a lone Chinese male suspect aged about 50.

Why It Matters

The case left multiple traces across busy streets and a building entrance in central Kwun Tong, suggesting the attack and the victim's movements may be reconstructed through physical evidence and surveillance footage already identified by police. For residents and late-night businesses in the area, the investigation also raises immediate concerns about violent disputes spilling from entertainment venues into nearby public spaces.
