CCTV News:In the early morning of yesterday (20th), a firefighter was unfortunately killed in the front line of mountain flood relief in Wenchuan, Sichuan. He is a Tibetan boy named Gengsiqiong. Let’s put the time back to the moment when he received the police.
At 2: 20 in the morning, the alarm sounded, and some people were trapped by flash floods. A full-time fire brigade of Shuimo Town, Wenchuan County and seven people immediately went to the rescue. Unexpectedly, only 2 kilometers after leaving Shuimo Town, their vehicles were trapped by floods.
Nengji, a full-time fireman of Shuimo Town, Wenchuan County, Aba Prefecture, Sichuan Province"The captain organized us to get on the roof. After getting on the roof for a few tens of seconds, our car was flooded immediately, and then many branches rushed down and scattered us."
The water level is getting higher and higher, and the firemen climb the trees beside the road to save themselves. Even poor and captain Xin Yang are clinging to the same tree. The flood was so powerful that both of them were quickly swept into the flood.
Yan Xiaolin, a full-time firefighter in Shuimo Town, Wenchuan County, Aba Prefecture, Sichuan Province: "When they were washed away, the headlights were facing the sky. At that time, I clearly saw two headlights in the water and then they were washed away."
Three hours after losing contact, in the early morning, two kilometers away from the accident site, Gengsi poor was found, but he was killed.
More poor, 33 years old, worked in this position for nearly 9 years. Yesterday, I should have taken a vacation, but I fell to my post forever.
