*********************************************************
The spokesman for Tuen Mun Hospital (TMH) made the following appeal today (May 1) regarding a patient who left the hospital without notifying hospital staff:
A 14-year-old female patient left the Gynaecology ward without notifying hospital staff at around 7pm tonight.
Upon discovered missing of the patient, ward staff reported the incident to security guards for searching immediately in hospital areas and at the vicinity but in vain. TMH is very concerned about the incident. The hospital contacted the patient's relative and reported the incident to the Police. The hospital will co-operate with the Police for the search.
The patient is about 1.73 metres tall with a thin body build, sharp face, white complexion with long black hair. She was wearing a black jacket and shorts when leaving TMH.
The hospital appeals to members of the public to contact Tuen Mun Police Station at 3661 5800 or call 999 if they know the whereabouts of the patient.
