A man robbed a gold necklace worth about HK$35,900 from a Tsim Sha Tsui jewelry shop on Saturday afternoon but police later successfully arrested him and recovered the item.

The robbery on Park Lane Shopper’s Boulevard was reported to police around 1.46 pm, with a staffer saying that the South Asian stormed into the shop and grabbed the gold necklace.

Police soon came and searched the area. They later intercepted and arrested the 40-year-old man on Haiphong Road near Kowloon Park and recovered that gold necklace.

Police are now investigating at the shop and checking the security camera footage.
