A rare work accident occurred in Wan Chai. At 10:58 in the morning today (22nd), a group of workers was working on a construction site on Hung Hing Road. A ground drain near the sea suddenly bounced up. A male worker could not escape and was hit by the drain. He was injured in his left hand and left waist and was sent to hospital for treatment accompanied by a worker.
Hong Kong mechanical engineer Lu Jue-kiang said that there are three major possibilities for the canal cover to fly. One is the explosion of underground methane gas, the other is gas seepage, and sparks cause an explosion. Finally, it is affected by the tide. The site of the accident this time was close to the sea. At that time, there was a strong wind and waves, and it was suspected that the canal cover was washed up by the waves.
