A small group of climbers is stuck on Lion Rock, but there is uncertainty on whether two or three people are involved, the police said, adding the group sought help late yesterday.

Firefighters have located the group, RTHK reports.

The report comes just days after firefighters had to undertake a rescue of a man and a woman who got into difficulty while hiking on Saturday.

They ended up stuck overnight and more than 150 rescue workers were involved in rescuing them during Severe Tropical Storm Pakhar.
