The man was pulled from Cathay Pacific flight CX251 to London, moments before it was due to leave the departure gate.

A man suspected of stabbing a Hong Kong police officer in the shoulder during a protest was arrested on board a flight that was about to take off for London, police said Thursday.

"During the early hours of July 2, a 24-yo man surnamed Wong was arrested at the airport on the suspicion of wounding," police said in a statement. Three others were injured when a man flying a Hong Kong independence flag rammed his motorbike into a group of officers in a scene that was captured on mobile phone.
