Australian on murder charge in Hong Kong

I don't get this. He was a passenger in the car and now he's charged with murder? I guess he tried to get away in the taxi for some reason but am I missing some crucial aspect of HK law here?

Maybe he killed the driver of the taxi he hit after taking the first one?

I think he violently argued with the driver, which caused the driver to crash into some other cars. The driver died because of this.
