Hong Kong worker dies after being pinned against wall at MTR Corp depot

A 20-year-old worker has died after being pinned against a wall by a railway motor car at a depot of the MTR Corporation in an industrial accident that is being investigated by the Labour Department.

Sources said on Friday that the department had received a report at 12.16pm about a worker who was killed by the 56-metre-long railway motor car at the Siu Ho Wan depot at North Lantau.

They said the man was walking past the rear of the motor car, but it suddenly slipped backwards and pressed him against a wall.

Other workers rushed to rescue him, according to the insiders.

The man was unconscious when sent to Princess Margaret Hospital in Lai Chi Kok, where he was certified dead.

The rail giant said it was highly concerned and would offer more details soon.
