Police are investigating what they believe are a series of arson attacks targeting a luxury Cheung Kong housing development under construction atop the Tsuen Wan West MTR station.

A fire broke out on Wednesday morning at the Ocean Pride development at around 10am, forcing around 50 workers to evacuate the area.

Firefighters put out the fire within two hours, only to find another fire had started nearby. No one was injured.

These are the just the latest in a series of fires that have hit the project. Police have made no arrests so far.
