A Helly-type theorem for intersections of orthogonally starshaped sets in \mathbb R^d

Let $\mathcal K$ be a finite family of orthogonal polytopes in $\mathbb R^d$ such that, for every nonempty subfamily $\mathcal K^\prime $ of $\mathcal K, \cap \{K : K$ in $\mathcal K^\prime \}$ , if nonempty, is a finite union of boxes whose intersection graph is a tree. Assume that every $d + 1$ (not necessarily distinct) members of $\mathcal K$ meet in a (nonempty) staircase starshaped set. Then $S \equiv \cap \{ K : K$ in $\mathcal K\}$ is nonempty and staircase starshaped.
