HONG KONG—Hong Kong police arrested the former executive editor-in-chief of the now-closed pro-democracy Apple Daily tabloid on July 21, local media reported, the latest arrest in a national security investigation of media tycoon Jimmy Lai’s newspaper.

Police, who typically don’t identify individuals under investigation, said in a statement that they had arrested a 51-year-old former male newspaper editor on suspicion of “conspiring to collude with foreign countries or foreign forces to endanger national security.”
