Four people were injured during a knife attack outside a\u00a0Hong Kong\u00a0mall on Sunday, including a local politician whose ear was reported to have been partially bitten off.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The attack happened outside the Cityplaza mall in Tai Koo, where pro-democracy protests took place earlier in the day.<\/div>\n
Three men and one woman are now being treated at the city’s Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital, a police source told CNN. Two of these are in a critical condition. The alleged attacked is also receiving treatment.<\/div>\n
Among the injured was a pro-democracy politician whose ear was partially bitten off by the unidentified attacker, according to public broadcaster RTHK and the AFP news agency.<\/div>\n
High-profile Hong Kong activist Joshua Wong tweeted that his “close colleague Dr Andrew Chiu was assaulted” and his “left ear was brutally halved.”<\/div>\n

Beijing says it will change how Hong Kong’s leader is ‘appointed and removed’<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Wong, whose tweet included graphic photos of Chiu clutching the bloodied side of his face, condemned “these violent attacks especially targeting election candidates.”<\/div>\n
Hong Kong is due to go to the polls later this month. A number of pro-democracy candidates for the district council have previously been attacked.<\/div>\n
The most notable case is that of\u00a0Jimmy Sham, the Civil Human Rights Front convenor who helped organize large marches in early June.<\/div>\n
Sham was attacked by a group of masked men carrying baseball bats and knives in August. In October he suffered head injuries in a second attack by another group of masked men armed with knives and hammers.<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Hong Kong Police confirmed in a statement Sunday that protesters gathered at Cityplaza “vandalized a restaurant in the mall” but they have not officially released details on the knife attack.<\/div>\n
Live video from local media also showed tear gas being fired during protests in Tai Koo Sunday evening.<\/div>\n
Hong Kong’s protests began in March, but they kicked off in earnest in June. They were sparked by widespread opposition to a controversial extradition bill that would have allowed extradition to China, but have since expanded to demands for full democracy and police accountability.<\/div>\n
In September, Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam announced the withdrawal of the extradition bill after months of large-scale protests, which have divided the city and damaged its economy, but the move has not stopped demonstrations.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
