A man was jailed for four years yesterday for taking part in an attack on a salesman dubbed the 'street-cat killer', who died hours later.
Unemployed Lam Wai-ho, 45, was convicted of wounding with intent to commit grievous bodily harm after a trial at the District Court.
He attacked Johnny Kong Chi-kit, 38, last June at a Temple Street electronic gifts store where Kong had worked.
Kong was described as the 'street-cat killer' and attracted negative media attention to the store by shooting at cats with an air gun.
Two other men, including the owner of the store, earlier pleaded guilty to the attack and were jailed.
The court heard that in the early hours of June 29 last year, Kong was brought to the store, where the trio beat him until he collapsed.
