A 3-year-old boy has died after choking on a piece of fatty pork in Guangdong province.

Bing Bing was eating dinner with his parents last month in Guangzhou.

He became faint after choking on the meat and was sent to hospital. On the way, his heart stopped beating.

Bing waited 20 minutes for treatment at the hospital. Doctors finally managed to revive him after 30 minutes of treatment.

Bing was immediately placed in the intensive care unit, but died a week later.

Doctors say Bing's brain had earlier suffered from too little oxygen.
