A man from Nepal has been arrested in connection with a high-profile robbery in Hung Hom on Friday when four men escaped with US$786,000 in cash after ambushing two jewellery store workers and allegedly slashing them with meat knives.
The 24-year-old man, a recognisance form holder, was arrested on Battery Street in Yau Ma Tei at 9.30pm that day, but officers found no property relating to the incident on him and only a small amount of suspected cannabis buds.
