HONG KONG — Two bottles of acid were thrown Saturday into a crowd in a popular downtown shopping district, injuring 30 people, police and news reports said.

It was the second such attack in five months. On the same street in December, 46 people suffered burns when two plastic bottles filled with acid were thrown at pedestrians.

“We will find out whether the two cases were done by the same person as soon as possible,” said police Superintendent Leung Ka-ming. “Right now, we do not rule out any possibilities.”
