A 21-year-old man committed suicide at Kwong Fuk Estate in Tai Po yesterday morning, reports Ming Pao.
At around 2am on Sunday morning the man, surnamed Chan, was found unconscious on a ground floor patio by building security guards.
Chan is believed to have fallen from a high floor hallway onto the ground, where he was pronounced dead on the scene by medical personnel.
A police investigation found that Chan had been taking construction industry courses after receiving poor results in the Hong Kong DSE examination two years ago, and that he remained unhappy about his academic performance.
The investigation also concluded that there were no suspicious circumstances in Chan’s death, and a search yielded no suicide note.
