The heavy rain in Doha is the main reason why the venue is slippery and causes the horse race to slip.
Yesterday, in the individual cross-country race of comprehensive equestrian held in Doha Equestrian Club, Hyung chil Kim accidentally fell while crossing the eighth railing, and unfortunately crushed his head. After the accident, Hyung chil Kim was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment, but eventually the treatment was ineffective and he was declared dead by the hospital at around 10: 50 local time. According to the analysis, due to the rare heavy rain in Doha yesterday, the equestrian venue was slippery, which should be the main reason for Henchkin's accidental fall in Marseille. After the accident, yesterday's equestrian competition was temporarily cancelled.
Muslem, an official in charge of medical treatment and doping of the Doha Organizing Committee, said at the press conference: "At that time, after the athletes fell off their horses and were injured, the medical staff at the scene took the most timely measures and gave the fastest assistance, and were sent to Hamad Hospital for emergency treatment after 10 minutes, but unfortunately, Hencl King left us at 10: 50 local time."
Korean delegation: Life is more important than gold medal.
Kim Yong-hwan, deputy head of the South Korean delegation, once choked at the press conference. She said that she would take full responsibility for the unfortunate death of Hench King. In view of this unfortunate accident, the Korean equestrian team may consider withdrawing from the Doha equestrian competition.
It is understood that the families of the victims have been informed of this unfortunate news and will arrive in Doha today. Jin Yonghuan also said: "This is an unfortunate accident. We have always stressed that winning the gold medal is very important, but the life of athletes is more important. "
The Asian Organizing Committee deeply regrets and puts forward higher requirements for the future competition organization.
After Hyung chil Kim's accident, the Organizing Committee of the Doha Asian Games held a press conference in the main press center, at which the accidental death was reported.
At the meeting, the medical officer of the Asian Games Organizing Committee officially announced the death information. Msalam, an official of the Olympic Council of Asia, said: "It is the first time in the history of the Asian Games that an athlete died unexpectedly during the competition. We deeply regret the comparison, which also puts higher demands on our future competition organization.
