On Saturday morning, police in Hong Kong arrested a 34-year-old man following reports of suspicious activity in Shek Kip Mei Park. According to official reports, the incident occurred around 3:30 a.m. near the park's tennis courts, an area where animal welfare volunteers regularly leave food for stray cats.

Authorities were alerted to the scene after receiving a report that an individual was seen placing a substance into the cat food. Upon arrival, officers detained the man and conducted a search. During the search, police discovered and seized a packet containing a substance suspected to be rat poison. Additionally, officers recovered a 14-centimeter fruit knife in the man's possession. The suspect remains in custody as the investigation into the incident continues. No reports of animal injuries or deaths resulting from the poisoned food have been confirmed at this time.
