A banker lost his HK$450,000 (US$57,000) watch and a HK$20,000 gold necklace after he fell asleep on the street while drunk and was robbed by two men in Hong Kong’s busy entertainment district before dawn on Thursday.
Shortly before 3am, a woman witnessed the incident near Energy Plaza on Granville Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, and shouted for help, alerting two male passers-by who gave chase and intercepted one of the suspects. But the other robber escaped with the valuables.
