Police said that the family was having dinner around 8pm when a maid spotted two strangers on a balcony of the home and saw another stranger watching from outside Oyster Creek Lodge at the luxury residential complex Customs Pass in Fei Ngo Shan Road.

The three men, who were about 1.75 metres tall and were wearing masks and black clothes, fled to a nearby hillside, police said.
