on the head with an iron bar,

The Police party had been sent to the waterfront in Eater Street
near its junction with Connaught Road West in Western district to
investigate the goings on of a crowd of about thirty people who had
gathered to listen to a broadcast from a boat moored nearby.

When Police arrived they were attacked and the Corporal was injured.

His assailant jumped into harbour. Four shots were fired at the
man but it was not known whether he was hit. A Police launch searched
the area but no trace of the man was found.

The injured policeman was treated at Queen Mary Hospital.

In addition to the arrests Police also seized a number of iron bars,
cargo hooks and bamboo poles.

Shortly after this incident which occurred at half past eight a
crowd of about sixty people gathered in Sutherland Street near Connaught
Road West but dispersed when police arrived on the scene.

About one and a half hours later two policemen and one bystander
were injured when a bomb exploded at junction of Queen's Road Central

and Jervois Street.

One of the policemen was seriously injured and was admitted

Others were treated and to Queen Mary Hospital for treatment.
discharged.

A second bomb was later found in same area and was detonated by an
Army ammunition expert.
