Two suspects charged with murder
*
Hong Kong Police

Police this morning charged two men each with one count of murder. They will appear in North Kowloon Magistrates' Courts later today.

The pair, aged 27 and 30, were arrested in connection with the death of a 22-year-old man and  two men, aged 32 and 36, who were injured in Sham Shui Po on Sunday evening.

 

A group of four or five men were fighting with knives and folding chairs at the junction of Kweilin Street and Lai Chi Kok Road at about 7.20pm on Sunday.

 

When Police arrived, they found three men injured. They were sent to Caritas Medical Centre where the 22-year-old was later certified dead.

 

Police found a 20-centimetre-long knife related to the case in a back lane of Tai Nan Street.

 

An investigation revealed that the men were fighting over money, and Police identified two suspects.

 

Shortly after noon on Monday, the 30-year-old man was arrested at his home in Yuen Long.

 

Macau Police stopped the other suspect at the Macau airport at about 6pm on Monday. They handed him over to the Hong Kong Police who escorted him back to Hong Kong.
