Woman accidently stabs self to death


In Sandakan, a restaurant operator slipped and accidentally stabbed herself to death with a kitchen knife.

Cynthia Tan Kian Hoon, 41, was preparing breakfast when she fell forward. The six inch knife which she was holding in her hand, pierced into her ribs.

Acting Sandakan police chief Supt Fadzil Mohd Ali said Tan’s son and a worker who were outside the restaurant ran in after hearing a scream and found her face down on the floor.

The son and a relative tried to carry the woman but she collapsed after three steps lost consciousness, Supt Fadzil said.

A pathologist confirmed the woman died after a main artery was served, he said, adding that police did not suspect foul play.
