Hong Kong police have arrested a motorist for dangerous driving after his car mounted a pavement and knocked down three pedestrians in Tsuen Wan.
Emergency personnel were called in after the Lexus car driven by a 27-year-old man crashed on Cheong Wing Road shortly before 8.45am on Monday.
According to the force, the driver allegedly lost control of his car near a pedestrian crossing and then hit three passers-by on the pavement.
After hitting two men and a woman, the car came to a stop at a flower bed.

The three injured pedestrians, aged 50 to 61, were taken in ambulances to Princess Margaret Hospital in Kwai Chung for treatment.
The driver, who was unhurt in the incident, passed a breathalyser test. Police arrested him on suspicion of dangerous driving causing grievous bodily harm.
