KOWLOON MOTOR CRASH.
MR. L. DANENBERG TAKEN TO HOSPITAL
A motor cycle accident which might easily have had more seclous consequences happened in Nathan Road, Kowloon, last evening, when Mr. L. Danenberg, of the China Light and Power Company, was rather badly hurt
It would appear that Mr. Darion- | berg was riding a four H. P. Hars ley Davidson flat twin motor cycle along Nathan Road, in the direc tion of the Po Hing theatre and when within a few yards of the junction of Waterloo Road, a Chinese girl, carrying some crock- ery, stopped off the path in front of his machine.. In an effort th avoid her, Mr. Danenberg swervedi and applied his brakes, but the machine skidded, and, throwing Mr. Danenberg off, turned towards Waterloo Road and crashed into a stone wall on the opposite side of Waterloo Road from President Apartments.
The police were immediately on the scene, and an ambulance hur ried to the spot, Mr. Danenberg being taken to Kowloon Hospital. The machine must have narrowly missed a tree, by the side of the road, a short distance from the place in which the machine stopped, for by the tree was some broken crockery. A few feel away, and slightly more towards the middle of the road, was a pool of blood, and as this was some fifteen feet away from the place where Mr. Danenberg was lying, it is aurmised that he either crawled or was carried off the main road into Waterloo Road.
The machine did not appear, to tave suffered much damage.. It is not known at the time of writing how serious are the injuries which Mr. Danenberg received,
