It wasn’t a usual day for all shoppers.
A wild boar caused havoc when it wandered into the metal jungle of Hong Kong trespassing into a shop, forcing staff and customers to leave.
Authorities said on Monday that the 25 kilogram female, around three feet long, ventured into a children’s wear shop at a mall in the crowded Chai Wan district late Sunday.
“The wild pig entered a shop and people called police. When officers arrived, staff and customers were evacuated. It then went up to seek a hideout in the loft,” a police spokesman told AFP.
The animal was also seen entering a changing room and knocking down and biting a mannequin.
10 officers tried to outdo the animal which took several hours of stand-off after it was tranquilized and taken to an animal center for observation.
According to earlier report, the incident was the second in the row, after a boar took a swim at a pool in a public park in Tsuen Wan.
The public is meanwhile advised to avoid contact with the boars.
