At about 4 a.m. today (21st), police officers patrolled by No. 31 Hing Yan Street, Kowloon City, and found a private car parked on the opposite side. The front of the car suddenly burst into flames.
Firefighters arrived at the scene and used a team of smoke caps and a hose to put out the fire.
After investigation based on the registration information of the license plate, the police found that the car was a wanted vehicle. It was involved in a criminal damage and assault case in Yuen Long about a month ago. The suspect ignored the police's pursuit and fled without a trace.
The case was handed over to the Second Team of the Kowloon City Police District Criminal Investigation Team for follow-up. No arrests have been made so far.
No one was injured in the incident.
