INQUIRY INTO WOMAN'S DEATH
by
CONCLUDED. *-
DRIVER ACQUITTED ON MAN. SLAUGHTER CHARGE.
2
The enquiry into the death of the Chinese woman, who was knocked down Sanitary Department lorry in Nathan Road, Kowloon, on October 11th (as reported yesterday) and aa result of which the driver of the lorry was held on a charge of manslaughter, was concluded yesterday afternoon at the Kowloon Magistracy.
Mr. J. H. B. Nibill sat as Coroner with a jury comprising: Messrs. P. Brown (foremin), Vieira Pereirs and A. Collaro. After further evidence was given by a pedestrian, a Sanitary Board coolie, who was riding on the lorry, at the time the accident took place, said that he was sitting next to the driver, and the truck was going at a very slow speed. He saw no-one in front of him when the lorry was rounding the corner of "Saigon "and Nathan Roads, but a woman rushed out from the pavement and the left side of the lorry knocked her down. hitting the woman. I felt a slight hump. witness continued, and I told the driver to stop. Witness and the driver then got off the lorry and went up to the woman who was lying on the road. They asked her to get on to the truck and said that they would take her to the police station. The woman said that she could not go.
WAY
"After
The witness further stated that the horn
sounded before and after rounding the corner.
Another witness, also a Sanitary Board roole, gave corroborative evidence.
Sergt. Mason said that he was attract- ed to the scene by the blowing of a police whistle. The lorry was standing about 20 yards away from where the woman was lying.
Lorry Driver's Story. The lorry driver said that when turning the corner, he sounded his horn, and put out his hand as a warning that he was. about to swerve.
After sounding the horn again, the coolie sitting next to me, called me to stop. -Witness" stopped the lorry, got out, and went bacy a "few yards to where the woman lay on the ground.
Case Summed Up. Summing-up, the Coroner said that as he had already pointed out in his open. ing remarks there was no difficulty in determing the cause of death of the unfortunate woman, but there might be some difficulty in deciding whether the driver was to be blamed or not.
It appeared that the driver had done all he could after the accident.
A verdict was returned to the effect that the woman met her death through

Mr. Lindsell said it seemed to be & waste of time of the Court to proceed any further. It might be of interest to attempt to investigate it, but as far as the Court was concerned, it was a waste of time. There was no evidence against the defendant.
Mr. Lo said according to his client it had been suggested that some of the Chinese police belonged to 4. Secret Society and they were trying to help get the defendant departed.
The defendant was discharged.
