Lau did not witness the incident, but went to the scene shortly afterward. The victim was still alive when the ambulance arrived, but could not be saved, he said.

We've lived here for 30 years and we've never seen anything like this, Lau said. We're scared, you know, it's happening in our own yard.

Police went door to door on the streets to collect footage from residents' security cameras. Lau said they asked for footage between 11am and 12pm yesterday to check if people were walking past the club.
