At 5:25 p.m. on January 18, someone called the police and said: Three people fell into the ice surface of Silver Lake in Wangyuan Town, and the situation was critical!
Rescuers from the Wangyuan Fire Rescue Station immediately rushed to the scene and learned that 2 adults and 1 child had fallen into the ice cave, at which time the children had been rescued.
At that time, the temperature was around 4 °C, and the two drowning people were propped up on the ice, and most of them were soaked in the bone-chilling ice water, about 15 meters from the shore.
The situation is urgent! Rescuers put on life jackets, tied safety ropes, and immediately launched rescue with life rings.
However, just as approaching the drowning person, the sound of the ice cracking suddenly appeared under the feet, and the rescuers immediately switched to crouching on the 6-meter ladder and creeping forward to increase the force area.
However, the ice surface at the break was too thin, and the 3 rescuers also fell into the ice water when they approached the drowning person.
At this time, the rescuers calmly used their bodies to prop up the drowning person, and cooperated with the rescuers on the ice to rescue a falling person first.
Subsequently, rescuers picked up another person who had fallen into the water and used a lifebuoy to rescue him.
After 5 minutes, the two people who fell into the water were all rescued and sent to the hospital for examination. At this time, the rescuers who fell into the water climbed out of the ice with the help of their partners. Fortunately, the accident did not cause casualties.
Later, it was learned that on the same day, a woman took her child to walk on the ice and accidentally fell into the lake. When a man rushed to the rescue, he also fell into the lake. Fortunately, rescuers arrived in time to avoid the tragedy.
