HONG KONG - Two men have been arrested over last week's smash-and-grab raid on a luxury jewellery shop in Hong Kong's Harbor City mall, police said Tuesday.
Two robbers smashed the display of a jewellery shop in the mall in Tsim Sha Tsui district on Wednesday evening and stole diamond jewellery worth HK$5 million (about $640,000). They finished the robbery in several minutes before making their escape.
