Knife-wielding men who stole hundreds of toilet rolls during panic-buying shortages in the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic in Hong Kong were jailed for more than three years on Thursday.

新型冠狀病毒大流行初期搶購潮造成的物資短缺期間，在香港揮刀搶走數百捲衛生紙的男子，週四被判入獄3年多。

The three were each sentenced to 40 months in prison over the armed robbery in February last year in which some 600 toilet rolls were taken, Mingpao newspaper reported.

明報報導，這3人因為去年2月持刀搶劫，各被判有期徒刑40個月；該起搶案中搶走約600捲衛生紙。

During the robbery, the three men admitted to using a knife to threaten a delivery driver outside a major supermarket chain.
