Burglars took advantage of families celebrating Father’s Day on Sunday night, ransacking through two houses in Sha Tin and escaping with HK$460,000 worth of cash and valuables.
The first burglary occurred on To Fung Shan Road in Sha Tin where HK$400,000 of jewellery and watches were stolen after the burglars pried open a toilet window to enter the house.
The second burglary happened in San Tin wai New Village on Yiu Wai Street. A two-storey house was ransacked and buglars left with jewellery worth HK$55,000 and HK$1,000 cash.
Police are investigating if the two cases are linked. No arrests have been made, reports the SCMP.
