I believe the three cases this month are related
Liu Zhi together with the case last night, three cases involving real firearms and bombs have occurred this month. Intelligence and investigations believe that the cases are related. The pistol seized in the case on December 8 and last night was the same type of P80 pistol. The man arrested late was the wanted man in the late case on 8 December. Liu Zhaobang's investigation revealed that there were plans to use weapons during the rally, including using pistols to create chaos, using long guns to shoot at high positions, and detonating bombs in crowded places to attack police officers. They also believed that the case might involve the same gang. Organization and Triad Investigation Section follow up. Liu also pointed out that the firearms and ammunition seized in the case were real firearms, not belonging to the police, and did not contain stolen elements, and also pointed out that the arrested person did not intend to rob and change the store.
Citizens besieged police officers
Liu Zhaobang also said that when a frontline police officer risked his life to subdue a suspect last night, a citizen approached the police and unreasonably required the police officer to present an authorization card at work, which deliberately obstructed the law enforcement of the police. It was regrettable and he said he ignored the danger of holding a gun The man and the ignored case are still at large. Liu Zhaobang said that because the mood of the people at the scene was very high and endangered the police action, the police used tear gas to avoid further physical contact.

A total of 11 people were arrested, aged 23 to 63. It is understood that some of the arrested persons were members of the Dragon Squad.
