Three people were on Tuesday injured by glass that fell from height at a Tsim Sha Tsui construction site.

The accident happened at around 2pm at the Mariners' Club, which is currently under renovation.

Police said they have arrested the sub-contractor of the site on suspicion of allowing objects to fall from height.

The two men and one woman - two of them tourists - sustained head and hand injuries and were sent to Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

The site's contractor, CR Construction Company, said a glass curtain wall broke while being lifted.

The firm said lifting operations have been suspended at the site, and that it will cooperate with government investigation.
