Summary
A street dispute in Mong Kok drew attention after video circulated online showing a man holding a baby during an argument with a woman, before he kicked a stroller and shoved her to the ground. Police said they received a report shortly after midnight on Sunday, but the man and woman had already left when officers arrived.
Key Points
- Police said a passer-by reported at 12:34am on Sunday that a man was assaulting a woman near the junction of Ki Lung Street and Pak Shu Street in Mong Kok.
- Video posted online showed the woman carrying a white suitcase while arguing with a man who was holding a child and standing beside a stroller
- During the confrontation, the man first kicked what HK01 described as a suspected suitcase, then turned and kicked the stroller away.
- He then rushed forward and pushed the woman down with his left hand, before apparently losing balance and dropping to one knee while still holding the baby.
- Police told HK01 the pair had left before officers arrived, and the case has been classified as a “dispute” for follow-up investigation.
Why It Matters
The footage has intensified public concern because the man was holding an infant throughout the confrontation, raising questions about the immediate safety of both the child and the woman. With the pair gone before police arrived, the case now depends on follow-up inquiries and video evidence already collected from the witness who reported the incident
