A 10-year-old girl attending a swimming lesson at a Queenstown condominium was injured when pebbles thrown from the 11th storey struck her on the head. The incident occurred at the seventh-floor swimming pool of Queen's Peak condominium on Sunday (Feb 16). There were around 10 other children attending swimming lessons in the pool at the time, according to Zhuang (transliteration), the mother of the injured girl, who spoke with Shin Min. She recounted hearing a loud noise and seeing an unknown object fall into the pool during the lesson. It was only after more objects started falling that the surrounding parents called for their children to get out of the pool. Zhuang was unaware of her daughter's injury until she complained of pain on her forehead. Upon further inspection, she found that her daughter's left forehead was scratched and swollen, reported Shin Min. Zhuang later found out that her daughter had been hit by pebbles, some which were around 7cm in diameter. There were around four pebbles, some of which had landed in the pool, while others landed on the edge of the pool. Read more
