Today's "A City of Good People", let's get to know Hu Xiang together.
"The man was emotional and arrogant, holding a folding knife in his hand, shouting that today either you die or I die."
The man's emotions are out of control, holding the knife to prevent the police from approaching, the police at the scene tacitly cooperate, Yan Hua is protecting the girl on the front, and talking with the man to attract attention, Hu Xiang is in the front of the side, and the auxiliary police officer Wang Tuo is in the rear of the side, waiting for the opportunity to grab the knife.
"When we found that the attention of the criminal suspect was on me and Yan Hua, our auxiliary police officer Wang Tuo rushed up with an arrow and grabbed the wrist of the criminal suspect, at this time the criminal suspect was still desperately resisting, wielding a knife, for the safety of his comrades-in-arms and the surrounding masses, Yan Hua and I also rushed over at the first time."
The man held the knife firmly and refused to let go. After a fierce fight, the police auxiliary police finally joined forces to take the knife with their bare hands.
After the man was subdued, Hu Xiang felt a sour and spicy sensation coming from his right abdomen.
"I looked down and saw that my police uniform was scratched, there was a lot of blood on the police uniform, I opened the police uniform, and I saw that there was a scratched wound, but at that time, I was thinking about how to control the criminal suspects, and the safety of the people's lives was guaranteed, and I did not think of my own safety."
The safety of the girl and the surrounding people was ensured, but Hu Xiang was cut with an 8-centimeter-long wound and stitched seven stitches afterwards.
"Thinking about it carefully, it is still a little afraid, as far as we are concerned, it is indeed our job duty for the people's police to protect the safety of the people." My family told me to do a good job and protect myself. In such an emergency, I will still rush forward. ”
This is the fifth year of Hu Xiang's police service, and the 44-year-old has served in the airborne troops for more than two decades. In 2018, he took off his military uniform and changed into a police uniform.
Although his identity has changed, Hu Xiang's original intention of serving the people has never changed.
"Since I was a child, I have had a Navy blue complex, and I did not hesitate to transfer from the army to choose the profession of police, who serve the people and crack down on illegal crimes."

Hu Xiang said that guarding the peace of one side is the source of power for his ordinary perseverance.
"For example, through patrolling and inventory, we will also find some cases of carrying illegally controlled knives, contraband and drugs, and through our seizure and crackdown on this aspect, we have laid a solid foundation for the safety of our side."
