Police have released a 34-year-old man they arrested earlier for child neglect, after his four-year-old son fell from a residential block on Tang Lung Street in Causeway Bay, injuring himself seriously.

Officers let the man go after preliminary investigation, but say they will continue to look into the case and seek legal advice.

The boy is being treated at Queen Mary Hospital and may have a brain haemorrhage.

Sources at the scene said the father was busy packing for moving, and the boy might have climbed out of the window and onto a drainpipe.
