A HONG KONG woman has been killed in a bizarre accident in which an elderly neighbour plunged from her high-rise flat and landed on top of her, police say.
Both women were killed yesterday after the 74-year-old slipped while collecting clothes from a drying rack outside her flat, a common sight in the densely populated city of seven million.
The elderly woman fell from her 27th-floor flat and landed directly on top of Chan Kwai-mui, 51.
In 2007, Chan was left a widow when a crane collapsed at a construction site, killing her husband and another worker.
"She had just managed to get over the death of her husband," local media quoted Chan's neighbour as saying.
Media reports say the women were "found in a heap" by a security guard.
