Compensation sought after brick kills woman

Relatives of a woman who died when she was hit by a brick thrown from a building by a 10-year-old boy are seeking compensation of more than 1.6 million yuan ($258,200). The woman, surnamed He, died in Dongguan in October, and her family has brought a lawsuit against the boy's parents. A court heard the case on Monday and will deliver its judgment later.
