Man, 74, dies after fall on Hong Kong bus, police appeal for witnesses

Hong Kong police are appealing for information after a 74-year-old man died following a fall inside a bus.

The man reportedly fell inside the bus as it made its way westbound along Kwun Tong Road at around 12:15pm on July 16.

It is not clear whether or not the elderly man was attempting to disembark at the time.

He was rushed to United Christian Hospital in a conscious state with just an injury to his hand, but died five days later.

Officers of the Special Investigation Team of Traffic of Kowloon East are now looking into the matter.

If you witnessed the accident or have any information, call (+852) 2305-7500 or (+852) 2305-7606.
