Hong Kong police have arrested a driver over a crash that left a 14-year-old cyclist fighting for his life.
The force said the 21-year-old was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving causing grievous bodily harm after his vehicle allegedly slammed into the back of the boy’s bicycle on Friday.
The Post has contacted the Hospital Authority about the boy’s condition. He had been rushed to hospital unconscious and without a pulse.
Emergency personnel were called to Chi Ho Road in the Kam Tin area of Yuen Long on Friday after the car allegedly struck the boy at 4.30pm.
“The unconscious boy had no pulse and was not breathing while being transported to Pok Oi Hospital [in Yuen Long],” a police spokesman said.

He said the teenager was later transferred to Tuen Mun Hospital.
Police said a special traffic investigation team from New Territories North was looking into the case.
Online video footage showed the cyclist lying by the roadside with blood on his face, while the driver was shouting loudly and calling police.
“I go to jail,” he shouted, kneeling on the ground.
“He is bleeding from his nose,” the driver said after checking on the boy.
Latest police figures show the number of people killed or seriously injured in traffic accidents across the city dropped by 38.7 per cent to 535 in the first eight months of this year from 873 over the same period in 2023.
