Man suspected to faint from heatstroke at Stanley

Medical staff arrived to rescue a person suspected of suffering heatstroke and fainting at the Stanley International Dragon Boat Championships spectator race venue this afternoon (June 10).

Dragon boat races and other activities were held in various districts of Hong Kong today, attracting many people to watch them, among which the Stanley International Dragon Boat Championships had the largest number of participants, and the crowd at the scene was dense, which inevitably led to poor air ventilation.

At noon, the temperature rose to around 31 degrees in many parts of Hong Kong.
