港鐵警葵芳站內發射橡膠子彈「非常遺憾」促顧及乘客安全
港鐵(00066.HK)發聲明,指警方昨晚(8月11日)約8時50分在葵芳站大堂與示威人士發生衝突,期間曾有人投擲雜物,損壞設施,並不當使用站內消防設備,及後警方進行驅散行動,據稱期間曾在站內發射橡膠子彈,由於當時站內有乘客和港鐵職員,有關事件及行動極有可能影響他們的安全,對此港鐵公司表示非常遺憾。
港鐵強調,乘客和職員的安全是首要考慮,並已就此向警方表示非常關注,並促請警方於執法期間必須先顧及港鐵員工及乘客的安全。
車站職員當時見站內有煙,基於乘客及車站職員安全考慮,於是啟動疏散程序。同時,車務控制中心亦即時指示荃灣線列車來回方向不停葵芳站,同時安排特別列車接載站內乘客離開。
及至睌上10時35分左右,車務控制中心鑑於站內所有乘客已離開車站,於是決定關閉車站,以便詳細檢查及維修站內設施,務求車站今天(12日)可提供正常車務運作。
港鐵公司強調,乘客和職員的安全是首要考慮,勸喻大家顧己及人,並且譴責一切暴力行為。
