Man arrested after smearing dung on doors of ethnic minority neighbors in Kwai Chung

A 23-year-old man from On Yam Estate has been arrested for allegedly revenging ethnic minorities for the noises they caused by smearing dung on their doors and throwing water bombs at neighbors having fun in the playground. 

Kwai Chung police said they received multiple reports that the locks for the water meters at several buildings on the estate had been stolen or damaged, affecting the water supply. 

Some neighbors also complained that someone threw water bombs at them while they were playing in the playground below. 

After an in-depth investigation, police soon targeted the suspect and laid an ambush on Friday night, arresting the 23-year-old man for criminal damage, theft and throwing objects from heights. 

According to sources, the man was discontent about the noises made by the ethnic minority neighbors and had splashed urine and smeared dung on their doors. 

He also left rubbish at the doors of his ethnic minority neighbors and threw water bombs at people in the playground. 

It is understood that about a dozen households in the estate were affected.
