Police are looking for a man who allegedly crashed a stolen car into four taxis in Ngau Tau Kok early on Saturday, following a police chase. They have described the suspect, who abandoned four others in the car, as a 20-30-year-old man with a tattoo on his left hand.

The incident began at around 3:30 am on Sheung Yee Road in Ngau Tau Kok, when officers noticed a group of people behaving suspiciously. The suspects then sped off in a private car with police in pursuit.

While travelling on the wrong side of the road, the vehicle crashed into the taxis parked at the junction of Ngau Tau Kok Road and Horse Shoe Lane.

Four taxi drivers and four passengers in the stolen car were injured.

The passengers, three women and a man aged between 19 and 21, were later arrested.

Police have classified the case as furious driving and taking conveyance without authority.
