Sina Weibo was all atwitter around 5pm on Thursday regarding what appeared to be a major scuffle in the Huaqiangbei area of Shenzhen. More than 500 people posted comments to Weibo, but nobody seems to know what was going on.
All we know is there was a large crowd on the scene, as well as several police officers. We hope to post more information as we find out, so check back later.
UPDATE (21:17):
Details are still scarce, but we are at least getting some second hand information. First, all references to the event can no longer be found on Sina Weibo, including the photo we’ve included in this post.
@mic tweeted us (@thenanfang) to let us know that it was a gang related confrontation with the police. He said: ”Seems to be a gang fighting, hundreds of tenants of Zhuowang Building against with police, for some unknown reasons”
As always, if you know anything let us know and we can pass it on.
