Tung Hing Butcher/Grocery Store had been around since the early 1960s. Its style was typical in the 60s and 70s, with different vendors selling beef, pork, fish, poultry, vegetable, etc in different corners of the shop. The building was demolished earlier this year (2017).

A one eyed poultry vendor was murdered one afternoon in the 70s or 80s mysteriously. He was sitting outside his stall, facing Shu Kuk Street, when something very small was shot into his neck. He fell ill and died within hours.
