Woman jumps from first floor of building after police raid Hong Kong massage parlour

The three suspected sex workers climbed onto a canopy over a ground-floor restaurant when officers from the Eastern special duties squad raided the flat in North Point Mansion, Healthy Street East, North Point at about 2pm.

A video posted online showed one of the three jumping to the ground from an air conditioner outside the block of flats.

The other two women climbed back in the window.

Six of those taken into custody, aged from 20 to 39, were visitors from the mainland, who were detained on suspicion of breaching their conditions of stay.

All those arrested were still detained for questioning on Tuesday night.
