A mysterious death incident happened in Wong Tai Sin District yesterday. A 74 year old woman and her son was found dead at home,the deceased's throat was being pierced and the left hand being sliced off the main arm. The police were very nervous at this brutal case and have immediately called the coroner and forensics to assist. They have later found the suspected the murder weapon,which was a kitchen cutter found in the deceased's home. Initial investigation revealed that the death of the deceased needs to be reconfirmed as they did not die a natural death. Post-mortem will be carried out later in the day to assist the investigation.



The scene was an apartment in Wong Tai Sin District. The deceased was surnamed Chin and Leung Aged 74 and 47 respectively. At about 4PM yesterday,the Leung was startled when he found his mother and his elder brother lying on the kitchen floor after he returned home. Leung saw his mother's left palm being severed from the body and her neck being pierced,large pools of blood was seen on the floor.

The paramedics certified Chin's and Leung's death on scene. Her left palm was being cut by a very sharp blade while her neck is being pierced by something sharp and long. The reason of her death was excessive bleeding,till an extent that her whole body was dry. It was believed that she had died for quite sometime. Police had retrieved a kitchen chopper stained with blood. It was suspected to be the murder weapon. The weapon is handed over to the forensics for test.

No signs of housebreaking was seen at the home. It was strange on the motive if its a murder.
