  • Police launch manhunt after Tuen Mun watch heist

Police are on the hunt for a gang of knife-wielding robbers, who staged a daylight raid on a shop in Tuen Mun on Sunday morning, taking luxury watches worth HK$15 million.

The force said the three black-clad men – aged between 30 and 40 years old – entered the shop on Kai Fat Path at around 11.30am.

Officers said they used hammers to smash glass cases and stuffed around 120 watches into a bag before fleeing in a private car towards Yuen Long.

A video of the raid has been circulating online, and police have classified the case as armed robbery.

No arrests have been made so far.
