Driver unaware as excavator falls off truck in Choi Hung
The only lane of the slip road from New Clear Water Bay Road near Shun Lee Estate heading to Shun Lee Tsuen Road was closed to traffic this morning after an excavator came off the back of a truck and landed sideways on the road, with the driver driving off the scene unnoticed.
Police received reports of the incident at around 11.23am this morning, which saw an orange excavator landing on its side against a slope on New Clear Water Bay Road.
Officers were still trying to locate the driver of the truck carrying the excavator, who drove off the scene unnoticed after the incident.
A crew was later called to the scene to use a crane to lift back up the excavator. The road is now re-opened to all traffic.
