SHOOTING INCIDENT.

CHINESE FATALLY WOUNDED

.BY» POLICE OFFICER,

A shooting incident which oc- curred on the night of October 20 last, was recalled before Mr. E. W. Hamilton at the Kowloon Magis- tracy yesterday afternoon, when an inquest was held into the cir cumstances of the death of a Chin- ese who succumbed to a bullet wound on January T..

Addressing the jury the Coroner said that the subject of the in- quiry was the death of a Chinese named Ip Kwal. The jury would have little difficulty in ascertain- ing the actual cause of death by the facts which would be placed before the Court.

Briefly, the facts were that on October 20 the deceased was shot by Sergeant Williamson, who was in charge of a picket. The man lingerod for some time and died

on January 7.

The police, continued

the Coroner, were the officers to whom the duty of enforcing the law, was entrusted but they were not, for that reason, placed above the law: The law regarding shooting by the police was very clear. There were. precedents of cases similar to this one. The regulations issued by superior officers for the guidance of their sergeants would be pro- duced by Mr. L. H, C. Calthrop.

The Shooting.

The Coroner said that the picket left the Yaumati Police Station
