Container terminal worker Wong Chik-hung fell four meters onto steel reinforcing bars, fatally piercing his heart.

According to The Standard, Wong was apparently not wearing a safety harness when working on the platform, and preliminary investigations suggest he lost his balance and fell. Wong leaves behind his wife Tam Lai-chi, daughter suffering from Down syndrome, and 80 year-old mother.
