The attackers soon fled the scene and injured Pang went to North District Hospital on his own and filed the police report. 

The case was listed as wounding and it is now being handled by the Tai Po district crime investigation team. No one has been arrested so far. 

It is understood that Pang is affiliated with triad society Wo Shing Wo.
