A safe containing cash and gold amounting to about HK$900,000 (RM476,800) in total was stolen from an upscale Hong Kong flat on Thursday, the latest in a series of break-ins in the city’s well-heeled neighbourhoods.
Police were called to the seventh-floor flat of Phoenix Court on Broadcast Drive in Kowloon Tong soon after 2.30pm when its 80-year-old occupant – a herbalist who had lived at the flat with his wife for 30 years – got home and found they had been burgled. The couple had left the flat shortly after 8am.
