Brave Rescue: Three-Year-Old Girl Saved After Dangling from Sham Shui Po Building




In a heart-stopping incident today, a three-year-old girl was rescued after she was found dangling from the outside drying rack of a building in Sham Shui Po. The brave actions of onlookers averted a potential tragedy.

At around 8 am, multiple pedestrians reported to the police that they had spotted a young girl hanging precariously on the drying rack outside a fourth-floor apartment on Wong Chuk Street. Concerned citizens rushed to the scene to rescue the trapped child, but to their surprise, they discovered that no one was inside the flat.


Moments later, a woman hurriedly arrived at the building and swiftly opened the door. With the assistance of two men, the girl was successfully rescued from her perilous position. Miraculously, she did not sustain any injuries during the incident.


Following a police investigation, the 44-year-old mother, identified as Mrs. Lee, was arrested on charges of "ill-treatment or neglect by those in charge of a child or young person." The case has been handed over to the Sham Shui Po police district for further proceedings.


The girl's father was informed of the incident and promptly accompanied his daughter to the police station. As a precautionary measure, she was later taken to Cartias Medical Centre for medical attention.



Preliminary findings suggest that the mother had left her daughter at home while she went out for shopping. It is suspected that the young girl, in search of her mother, climbed out of the window, leading to her entanglement on the drying racks.


This heartwrenching incident serves as a reminder of the importance of ensuring the safety and well-being of young children. It highlights the need for responsible supervision and secure environments to prevent such accidents from occurring.


The swift response and courage displayed by the onlookers in rescuing the girl deserve utmost praise, as their actions prevented a potential tragedy. The authorities will conduct a thorough investigation into the incident to ensure the safety of the child and to prevent similar occurrences in the future.


勇敢救援:三歲女童在深水埗大廈懸掛後獲救



在今天一起驚心動魄的事件中,一名三歲女童在深水埗的一座大廈外的晾衣架上懸掛,幸虧旁觀者的勇敢行動避免了一場潛在的悲劇。


大約在上午8點左右,多名行人向警方報告,他們看到一名年幼女童危險地懸掛在深水埗旺竺街一個位於四樓的單位外的晾衣架上。為了拯救被困的孩子,關心的市民迅速趕到現場,但讓他們驚訝的是,該單位內並沒有任何人。


片刻之後,一名婦女匆匆趕到大廈,迅速打開了門。在兩名男子的幫助下,這名女童成功從危險的位置中獲救。奇蹟般地,她在這一事件中並未受到任何傷害。


經過警方調查,這名44歲的母親李女士因涉嫌「虐待或疏忽照料兒童或青少年」被逮捕。此案件已移交給深水埗警區進一步處理。


女童的父親得知這一事件後,立即陪同女兒前往警察局。作為預防措施,她隨後被送往明愛醫療中心進行醫療治療。


初步調查結果顯示,母親在外購物時將女兒留在家中。據懷疑,這名年幼女童為尋找母親,爬出窗外,導致她被纏住並懸掛在晾衣架上。


這起令人心碎的事件提醒人們要確保年幼兒童的安全和福祉的重要性。它凸顯了負責任的監護和安全環境的必要性,以防止類似的意外事件發生。


旁觀者在救援女童時展示的迅速反應和勇氣值得高度讚揚,他們的行動阻止了一場可能的悲劇。有關部門將對此事件進行全面調查,以確保孩子的安全,並防止將來發生類似的事故。
