April 16 at 4 p.m
The Xiushan County Fire and Rescue Brigade received a report from passers-by
There was an elderly man who was affected by heavy rainfall
The water level of the river has skyrocketed, and he is trapped on the other side of the river
Rescue is urgently needed
After receiving the alarm, rescuers rushed to the scene as soon as possible
When fire and rescue personnel arrived at the scene, they found that the river was still rising, the water was turbulent and mixed with sediment, and an octogenarian was trapped on the other side of the river.
The on-site commander immediately judged the current situation of the river and the situation of the trapped elderly, and decided to use the construction of a "rope bridge" to rescue the trapped elderly, and the rescuers first crossed to the trapped elderly under the condition of doing a good job of safety protection measures, and then used the life-saving thrower to send the rescue rope to the opposite bank, and used the fire truck rescue cantilever and adult trees as anchor points to set up a rope rescue rescue system, and then put on a rescue safety sling for the trapped elderly, and transferred and transported the trapped elderly.
After more than an hour of intense rescue, the fire rescue personnel successfully rescued the trapped old man. It is understood that the old man went to a relative's house on the other side of the river on the afternoon of the 15th to look for tea oil, and nearly a whole day has passed since passers-by found her trapped and called the police.
