The subway operator who owns the escalator said a woman left both the boy and a three-year-old girl unattended when the incident happened. It was not known if the woman was their mother, the Chongqing Morning Post reports.

According to the report, the escalator has been halted pending further investigation into the cause of the accident.

The tragedy is the latest of a string of accidents on escalators and lifts in recent months in China.
