HONG KONG - An attacker hurled acid at pedestrians in a crowded Hong Kong shopping district on Sunday, injuring 11 people in the neighborhood’s fourth acid attack in a year.
Television footage from Cable TV showed two victims with their heads covered in bandages being wheeled on stretchers to ambulances.
A police spokesman said the attacker, a 28-year-old man arrested nearby, targeted a couple strolling through the Mong Kok district, but also hurt nine others.
Police said the couple quarreled with the suspect before the attack.
Sunday's assault was unrelated to the previous ones, which started last December and have injured some 100 people, according to police.
In those attacks, acid apparently was tossed from neighboring buildings.
No one was arrested.
