Hong Kong police arrest 2 in connection with death of man involved in bare-knuckle triad showdown

Hong Kong police have arrested two suspected triad members in connection with the murder of another reputed gangster, who died earlier this month from wounds sustained in a bare-knuckle showdown with a group of nine men in June.

One of the two suspects, aged 21, was tracked by detectives to a hotel room in Hung Hom on Tuesday evening. His 23-year-old girlfriend, who was also in the room, was arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender.
