A rainstorm has just arrived in HK today. A netizen shared a video on social media, believed to show a suspended platform in Tin Shui Wai, New Territories, being blown away from the exterior wall during ongoing facade work, creating a very dangerous situation.
In the video, it can be seen that some of the suspension ropes of the platform have come loose, with debris flying wildly in the strong winds. Three male workers on the platform were seen gripping the ropes tightly to secure themselves.
According to reports, the fire department received an emergency call around 3 PM, indicating that someone was trapped on the platform. Fortunately, the trapped workers was eventually rescued safely.
