Wuhan, February 10 (Xinhuanet) -- Just after the spring, the river is still bone-chilling. As soon as the pickup truck fell into the water, someone jumped into the river to rescue the trapped villagers. Recently, in Shishou City, Hubei Province, Wu Like's feat of saving villagers who fell into the water has become a beautiful talk.
Wu Like is the first secretary and team leader of Shishou Emergency Management Bureau in Xingou Village, Dayuan Town. The 39-year-old is a retired soldier who has been awarded "Excellent Soldier" many times during his service and awarded the "Third Class Meritorious Service" once. Wu Like's family is in Xingou Village, and during the Spring Festival this year, he has been staying in the village, responsible for handling the epidemic prevention and control and safe festival work in the village.
At about 12:50 on February 6, Wu Like, who had just finished his shift and had been busy all morning, was eating lunch. At this time, he received a distress call: "Not good! A car rushed into the river! "Where?" Wu Like's heart sank, and he hurried to ask questions. "Right next to our village!" "Okay, I'll come right away!" Wu Like dropped his rice bowl, grabbed the car keys, pulled the car door, lit the fire, started, and drove to the river at the head of the village.
The place where the vehicle fell into the water was about 300 meters away from Wu Like's house, and when he came to the river, several villagers were looking at the river at the river and were helpless. At that time, the roof of a white pickup truck had been submerged in the water, and the car was still sinking little by little. There was a villager on the roof of the car, carrying a wooden stick in his hand, helpless. "Not bad! It's going to be a human life! Wu Like suddenly tensed up. Without much thought, he took off his coat and rushed into the river.
At the moment when his feet fell into the water, Wu Like shivered. But he didn't think much of it and hurried toward the pickup truck. When he got to the front of the car, Wu Like bent down and pulled the car door several times, but he couldn't open it. He kicked the front window glass of the van with his foot, but it didn't break. "Smash the car with a stick!" Wu Like shouted. The villagers handed the stick over, and Wu Like took the stick, slammed it against the front window glass, and kicked it twice.
Soon, the front window glass shattered. Wu Like held his breath in the water and reached out to grab the cab driver and pull him out. The driver was pulled out and his head was exposed to the surface. Wu Like found that the driver was unconscious, and he carefully held the driver's head and swam to the shore. Near the shore, the villagers carried the driver to the shore with all hands and feet.
Time is of the essence. The driver who fell into the water had a weak breath and could not wait for the arrival of the medical staff, and Wu Like did not have time to catch his breath and began to do cardiopulmonary resuscitation for the driver: one, two, three... Wu Like has lost his physical strength, but he still insists on it and tries his best to rescue it. Gradually, the rescued driver vomited four or five times, his stomach rose and fell, and he slowly regained his breathing and had some consciousness. At this time, the 120 ambulance arrived at the scene, and people carried the driver into the ambulance, and Wu Like could relax his mind.
Afterwards, Wu Like found that he had injured both his hands and feet while rescuing people. He went to the hospital for examination and had 6 stitches in his hand and 3 stitches on his foot. "I didn't feel any pain when I was saving people, and I felt that my hands and feet were particularly painful after I was done." Wu Like said that he worked in the emergency rescue department, often participated in some emergency rescue drills, and mastered some emergency rescue skills.
The driver who was rescued was named Zhou Zhengbin, 60 years old this year, and also a villager in Xingou Village. It turned out that when Zhou Zhengbin drove back to the village that day, he mistakenly used the throttle as a brake pedal, and the car suddenly rushed into the river. After a few days of treatment, Zhou Zhengbin has now been transferred from the ICU ward to the general ward, and can be discharged in a few days. "Thank you so much Secretary Wu, he saved my family's old Monday life." Zhou Zhengbin's wife, Teng Aixiang, said.
Wu Like's heroic feat of saving people was praised by the villagers. Wu Wenke, a villager who called Wu Like for help at that time, said that it only took about 3 minutes for Wu Like to jump into the river to save people to rescue the people who fell into the water. It was this precious 3 minutes that saved a life. "When I called Secretary Wu at that time, I felt that Secretary Wu had experience and responsibility, and believed that he could handle things well." Wu Wenke said.
