A diner at a Chinese restaurant in Wong Tai Sin has said a rat fell from the ceiling and hit them on the arm, leaving blood, while he was holding a four-month-old baby.
The incident happened at about 11.50 am on Sunday (Nov. 8), and the animal fell to the floor motionless and appeared to be dead.
The diner said the greater shock was holding the baby at the time, and that a slightly different trajectory could have ended far worse.
They were angrier still at the staff response: at least eight employees were eating at a nearby table, none came to help, and one said they were frightened and stepped back while the rest watched. A blue plastic basket was placed over the rat only later.
The post prompted online calls for the restaurant to be named.
