阿联酋航空一架从迪拜来港的货机,在20日清晨近4时于香港机场北跑道降落时,怀疑撞上地勤巡逻车后冲出跑道,连同巡逻车一同坠海。货机上4名机组人员未有受伤,但巡逻车上2人证实死亡。
Two people were killed after a cargo plane slid off the north runway of Hong Kong International Airport early on Monday morning, apparently striking a ground vehicle and plunging almost entirely into the sea, police have said.
At about 3:50 am, Emirates flight EK9788 from Dubai veered off the runway while landing, according to police, who said it is suspected to have struck a ground service vehicle in the process.
据网上流传图片显示,涉事货机机尾折断,机头部分浮在海上。现场消息称,事故中有一辆地勤巡逻车被撞,连人带车被撞落海。搜救人员救起车上两人,其中30岁乘客当场证实死亡,41岁司机送院抢救不治。
The aircraft, a Boeing 747 freighter, failed to stop in time and partly landed in the waters off the airport's north runway. Initial reports suggest the plane also knocked the ground vehicle into the sea.
Two men aboard the ground vehicle were initially reported missing. One, aged 30, was pulled from the sea and confirmed dead at the scene at 5:55 am. The other, aged 41, was sent to North Lantau Hospital and was confirmed dead at 6:26 am.
涉事货机航班编号UAE9788。据航班跟踪网所示,货机在跑道上滑行途中冲出跑道。受事故影响,机场北跑道已经关闭,机场紧急启动应变中心,机管局将于早上10时交代情况。
All four of the flight's crew members escaped unharmed.
As a result of the incident, the airport's north runway has been temporarily closed.
