Police were looking for a man after a three-year-old boy was found alone at home on Yau Ma Po Street in Sai Kung, New Territories.
On Saturday evening, the boy’s mother, a 35-year-old woman of Philippine origin, left home after having a quarrel with her Indian husband, Oriental Daily reported. When she returned home at 6am on Sunday, she found that her young son was alone, locked inside a room.
Worried about the boy’s safety, the woman called the police, who soon arrived with firefighters to rescue the boy.
The boy was uninjured, but he was sent to a hospital for a checkup anyway accompanied by his mother.
Both parents hold Hong Kong identity cards.
Police categorized the case as ill-treatment or neglect by those in charge of a child or young person, Sing Tao Daily reported. No one was immediately arrested. Wong Tai Sin police were looking for the boy’s father for further investigation.

Both stupid
Abbi Pradz agreed
Marian Otos & @fae hendrick so that’s how you both work with your partners? If you had a quarrel or fight with him and you wanna walk out, you will bring your kids with you even if it’s in the middle of the night?
Happen what may,,a responsible mother will not leave her children to her spouse after a dispute. .If needed to leave,must bring her child/children with her.. they both abandoned their child..they both must give punishment by law..something they can always remember in case it will happen again..
Marian Otos that’s true..she should not left her son what ever happenedshe should bring the boy..stupid
