  • Four on the run over San Po Kong smash-and-grab

The police are on the hunt for four people over the second smash-and-grab robbery in Hong Kong in just over two weeks.

Officers said the gang targetted a jewellery shop in San Po Kong in broad daylight. CCTV footage showed they completed the heist in about one minute.

Three people, dressed in black and wearing face masks, were seen entering the shop on Tseuk Luk Street on Thursday morning. There were no customers at the time.

Two of them smashed the glass on a display case with sledgehammers.

The gang came away with numerous gold ornaments before fleeing by car.

The shop was still tallying its losses. Its staff were not injured.

On August 25, two men pulled off a similar smash-and-grab at a jewellery shop in Fanling.
