On February 9, the Xidu Police Station of the Fengxian Branch of the Public Security Bureau received a report from the masses that an elderly man was suspected of getting lost at the Sinopec gas station at the mouth of the Daye Highway on the Shanghai-Hangzhou Highway. After receiving the alarm, the police immediately went to the scene.
After arriving at the scene, the police found that the old man's hands were trembling and emotional, and although there were words in his mouth, he could not understand what he was saying
"Grandma, you say slowly, it doesn't matter, say slowly, we are not in a hurry." Although the police patiently inquired for a long time, the old man only vaguely expressed that he lived in Wuqiao, and other information was found. In order to ensure the safety of the elderly, the police had to calm the old man's emotions while taking him back to the police station for placement, and arranged lunch and tea for her.
Later, after many inquiries, the police finally verified the identity of the old man, and after several twists and turns, successfully contacted her son and drove him back to his home in Xinye Village, Wuqiao.
Seeing that the old man returned safely, the old man's son blamed himself. It turned out that the old man's surname was Zhong, 72 years old this year, usually there have been people at home to take care of, but because of many things in the family that day, the old man took advantage of people's inattention to go out alone, and as a result, he got lost when he went out. Unable to communicate normally, the old man walked all the way from Fengxian Wuqiao Xinye Village to Xidu Street, walking a full 8 kilometers, and finally was found by the staff at the gas station and called the police.
Here is also another reminder to citizens and friends: for the elderly suffering from diseases should take more care, try not to let them go out alone, in case of accidents. At the same time, the family contact card can be hung on the elderly to facilitate timely contact after the elderly are lost.
