Drug-trafficking Boy Gets Paid $1000 and Pays the Price
.
Summary:
A 16-year-old boy was caught red-handed carrying two kilogrammes of cocaine in an operation conducted by Customs and Excise Department officers in Shatin. Reports indicate that the teenager, not having ties with any criminal organisations, was tempted by the $1000 fee for trafficking in the drug, which is worth roughly $2 million.

Language Enhancement:
Catch sb. red-handed (idm.)(當場抓住)
同學可試想像以下情況：如果目睹一宗命案發生，死者躺在地上而身旁站著一個手上沾著紅色液體（也就是 red-handed「紅手的」）的人，百分之二百會把那人判定為兇手，這也是 catch sb. red-handed 的意思：把疑犯當場抓住，人贓俱獲。除了罪案，這習語也適用於日常生活內的各種做錯事的場合。
e.g. James was caught red-handed by the security guard when he tried to shoplift a candy bar.
e.g. If we want a conviction, then we need to catch them red-handed with the evidence.
