Man charged over 1991 murder
Police on Monday charged a man with murder and attempted burglary over an incident that took place in 1991. Officers said a shopkeeper in Sham Shui Po who sold second-hand watches and jewellery died after being shot in the head.  Three people tried and failed to break the glass display cabinets in the shop before fleeing in a stolen car, police said. Superintendent Alan Chung said officers identified one suspect two years ago and put him on their wanted list.  The 59-year-old was arrested as he tried to enter Hong Kong at the Shenzhen Bay border crossing on Saturday. "We believe the arrested person is one of the three suspects," Chung told reporters. The man was remanded in custody after appearing in Kowloon City Court on Monday afternoon. No plea was taken and the case was adjourned until January 15._____________________________
