HONG KONG (AP) — An unidentified assailant hurled acid in a busy Hong Kong shopping district, injuring 24 pedestrians including a 4-year old girl, police said Tuesday. It was the third in a series of acid attacks that have hurt about 100 people.
Police said a bottle of corrosive liquid was thrown on a crowd in the Mong Kok district on Monday night. None of the victims, age 4 to 49, were seriously burned.
Hong Kong leader Donald Tsang condemned the attack, saying it was "cold-blooded and evil" and the assailant was "scum of the society." Investigators have posted a 900,000 Hong Kong dollar ($116,097) reward for information leading to an arrest.
Police were reviewing footage from surveillance cameras for clues about who was behind the third such attack in the neighborhood six months.
On the same street last month, 30 people suffered burns when two plastic bottles filled with acid were thrown down into a crowd. Another 46 were injured in a similar attack in that neighborhood in December.
