When it comes to crimes, Hong Kong is a certainly a safe place for a big city especially when you compare it with those in U.S. Perhaps one big difference is that guns are not allowed here. But then from time to time there would be some major crimes that shock the city. Here's a list of them, certainly not exhaustive, for those who are interested in visiting these former crime scenes.

• The Subway Ambush (Tsim Sha Tsui, 2006)
• The Milkshake Murder (Hong Kong Island, 2003)
• Luk Yu Tea House ('dim sum' restaurant) Assasination (2002, Central)
• The Kornhill Inside Job (2000, Taikoo Shing )
• AK47 Jewellry Shop Robbery (Nathan Road, 1993)
• Robinson Road (Mid-Levels, 1984)
