A 14-year-old girl was found dead in a room at a residence in Yau Ma Tei on September 7, after her mother discovered the incident and called police for help. Ambulance personnel later confirmed she had died at the scene.
Police reportedly found no suicide note at the residence. The circumstances remain under investigation, and the girl’s cause of death will be determined by an autopsy.
Ming Pao reported that a preliminary police assessment was that the girl had hanged herself in the room. This remains a preliminary assessment, rather than a confirmed final finding.
The two reports give different accounts of the exact building and the time of the call for help, so those details have not been treated as established. No further background about the girl was provided, and police inquiries are continuing.
