An American pilot was arrested at his Hong Kong flat on Wednesday night after a live round, and more than 9,000 blank and spent cartridges.
Officers were called to a warehouse in Tsing Yi at 5.40pm on Wednesday, when staff at a logistics company found the haul when they opened the boxes for inspection.
“The haul contained one live round, more than 4,000 empty cartridges, and about 5,000 spent cartridges,” a police source said.
The boxes were brought back to the warehouse after being sent to the Kennedy Town home of the 44-year-old pilot.
A mistake? No kidding.
