Dad gets 10 years in gas station deathBy Jason Pan / Staff reporterThe Kaohsiung branch of the Taiwan High Court yesterday handed a heavier, 10-year sentence to a man after his three-year-old daughter died from an air pump at a gas station. The High Court found Kuang guilty of deliberately causing injury to a child resulting in death. The incident took place in January 2019, when Kuang drove to a gas station in Kaohsiung for the self-service car wash, as his daughter sat in the front passenger seat. He was found guilty of failing to look after the girl and allowing her to play with the air pump. The High Court ruled that Kuang had directly caused the girl’s death, most likely by putting the air nozzle in her mouth.
