Police are investigating a fatal traffic accident in which a 52-year-old woman died in Wong Tai Sin on Wednesday evening.
According to the force, the incident took place at 9:20pm when a light goods vehicle, driven by a 29-year-old man, collided with a motorcycle near the junction of Tai Shing Street and Tung Tau Tsuen Road.

After being extricated by firefighters, she was taken to Kwong Wah Hospital in an unconscious state but was declared dead at 10:37pm.
