Hoverboard Mishap Kills Filipino in Dubai Park

DUBAI: A Filipino man died while doing a stunt using his hoverboard (hands-free Segway) at a Dubai park last week, a police official has revealed.

The man lost his balance and fell off his hoverboard after he hit a power pole in Mushrif Park while trying to do a stunt, Colonel Saif Al Mazroui, Dubai’s traffic police chief, was quoted as saying by Emirates 24/7.

He reportedly noted that the Federal Traffic Council had issued a decision banning the use of air wheels on UAE roads given their high risks.

“There have also been similar accidents that caused injuries to their users,” he was quoted saying in an Emarat Al Youm daily report.
