Hong Kong Mall Stabbing Incident Leaves Two Women Dead; Assailant Purchased Knife Just 10 Minutes Before Attack
On Friday (3 June), two women aged 22 and 26 shopping at the Plaza Hollywood Mall in Diamond Hill, Hong Kong, were fatally stabbed.
CCTV footage of the mall stabbing incident has since made its rounds online, leaving many netizens abhorred. Here’s a warning—the footage isn’t for the weak-hearted.
So, what exactly happened?
Around 5 pm local time, a man was spotted purchasing a 15 cm knife from a nearby shop.
Ten minutes after he bought the knife, he put it to use.
From the CCTV footage, the 39-year-old man could be seen approaching the two women from behind before suddenly breaking into a rampage and stabbing one of the two women.
Bystanders and nearby shopkeepers were seen fleeing the scene in panic.
Later, a trail of blood is left behind as the second woman tries to pull her companion’s body away from the assailant, all while the assailant repeatedly stabs the first woman.
The second woman also tries to fight back a few times but to no avail. Instead, the assailant raises his knife and starts attacking the second woman.
Both victims were unconscious when conveyed to the hospital and eventually passed away.
Assailant Allegedly Stood By The Deceased’s Bodies Even While Medics Provided First Aid
According to a bystander, even when medics arrived to provide first aid to the two women, the assailant didn’t budge.
Instead, the assailant continued standing by the deceased’s bodies, all while the medics were doing their work.
Sounds like something straight out of a horror film. Felt a chill go down your spine yet?

Police subsequently arrived at the scene and arrested the 39-year-old assailant. The 39-year-old was then brought to a police station to be questioned.
39-Year-Old Assailant Suffers From Schizophrenia
While authorities have classified this case as a murder case, it isn’t as straightforward as you may think it is.
First, based on preliminary investigations, it doesn’t appear that the two victims knew the 39-year-old assailant.
Second, according to the South China Morning Post, the 39-year-old was schizophrenic. It was also confirmed that he was due for an appointment at a public specialist outpatient clinic for his schizophrenia just days later.
As investigations into this fatal mall stabbing continue, we can only wait and see what other layers are to be unveiled.
