The location of the incident is No. 33, Lung Sum Avenue. At around 12:00 midnight, the police received a report and arrived at the scene. During the time, an emotionally agitated woman refused to cooperate with the police and waved a kitchen knife about 30 centimeters long. The police officer used a pepper spray dispenser, which hit her right forearm to subdue the woman. After that, she was sent to the North District Hospital while conscious for treatment.

Allegedly, the arrested woman is surnamed Liu (32 years old), and she came to Hong Kong with a two-way exit permit. After the police conducted an initial investigation, they found that the incident occurred because the woman had a dispute with a staff member over a trivial matter. During their quarreling, the woman used the kitchen knife to damage the phone of the noodle restaurant.

The arrested woman was injured in her hand and was sent to the hospital for treatment. It is said that the woman has already suffered from emotional distress. Due to some payment problems at the noodle restaurant, she lost control and rushed into the kitchen of the restaurant to take out a knife, making the restaurant's owner call the police for help.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Texas Rangers designated hitter Josh Jung was diagnosed with a fractured bone in his right hand on Friday after he was hit by a pitch in the first inning of the Rangers' 10-2 loss to the Minnesota Twins.

Rangers manger Skip Schumaker said after the game that X-rays showed a fracture in the fifth metacarpal of Jung's right hand, but the team was planning on doing more testing and evaluation on Saturday before making a decision on his status.

Jung said he was “devastated” and knew as soon as he was hit by a 94.6-mph fastball from Twins starter Joe Ryan that the bone was broken.

“I felt like the bones kind of got pushed,” said Jung, who stayed in the game to run the bases but was removed for a pinch hitter in the third inning.

The Rangers are battling the Houston Astros for the AL West title, and losing Jung — while fellow DH Joc Pederson is already on the IL with a hand fracture — doesn't help their cause.

“It's not ideal at this time of the year,” Schumaker said. “But we've still got two games left and we've got to figure this thing out.”
