Fortunately, another passer-by arrived on the scene as may5w was attempting to break free from her assailant. This courageous individual seemed to shield the streamer, prompting the assailant to retreat and flee the scene. May5w expressed her gratitude to her rescuer, thanking him profusely for his intervention.
The shocking incident quickly garnered attention on social media platforms as footage of the assault circulated among users. It was reported that may5w initially hesitated to file a police report out of fear that the attacker might seek revenge.
In a positive turn of events, Hong Kong police swiftly responded to the incident. They arrested a 46-year-old Indian man in the Kennedy Town district of Hong Kong on suspicion of indecent assault and outraging public decency. The man, whose occupation is listed as a waiter, had his identity and workplace exposed on social media as internet sleuths tracked him down.
This incident serves as a stark reminder of the importance of public awareness and intervention in cases of harassment and assault, both online and offline.
