Four people from China's mainland have been jailed in Hong Kong following a violent dispute at the city's airport.

The incident happened about 2:30am on Tuesday, when a group of six mainlanders clashed with airport staff over a flight delay. The six were booked on a flight from Hong Kong to Beijing, which was held up for more than six hours due to bad weather.

Disgruntled by the delay, one of the six attempted to force his way onto the air bridge. When he was tackled by staff members a scuffle broke out in which some of the workers were injured. Police arrived and the six passengers, aged 21 to 42, were arrested.
