[Reporter Chen Yanting/Pingtung Report] There is no way to save those who are too strong!

A 77-year-old man in Chaozhou, Pingtung, wanted to go home in the evening a few days ago, but insisted on going home from a fire lane less than 30 centimeters wide. It took half an hour to rescue the old man by sending two lean team members to half push and half pull.

The 77-year-old man surnamed Yin is usually in poor mental condition and usually lives alone. A few days ago, he suspected that he was taking a shortcut to go home. It had been in disrepair and brittle for a long time, and he stepped on it with one foot, so he couldn't move.

As it was getting dark at that time, the old man hurriedly called for help. Fortunately, passers-by nearby heard about the report, and the Chaozhou branch and the fire brigade rushed to the scene to rescue them. The firefighters entered, but there was no room to pull the old man out. Fortunately, the old man was still conscious and able to talk to others, so he hurriedly asked for support, and then the team quickly dispatched two lean firefighters to the scene.

The fire lane is only about 30 centimeters wide, and even the two support team members are not able to exert force, so we had to ask the old man to pull his feet out of the ditch, and then push the old man halfway to the exit. The method, step by step, assisted the elderly to withdraw from the road. It took 30 minutes in just 15 meters, and the old man was slowly moved out of the alley in a sitting position. The firefighters were sweating profusely.

The Chaozhou Fire Brigade stated that after evaluating his vital signs, the ambulance staff found multiple abrasions on the patient's limbs. After cleaning the wound immediately and bandaging to stop the bleeding, he was sent to Chaozhou Antai Hospital for emergency treatment. The panic ended. The police informed his son to go to the hospital for care .

The old man wanted to pass through the narrow alley, but stepped on the gutter cover and got trapped.
