LUZHOU, China — Crews in China’s Sichuan Province rescued a man trapped in dangerous floodwaters Sunday.
CCTV reports the man became stranded near a pier in a raging river. Firefighters used the bucket of an excavator to try and rescue the man, but he didn’t respond.
They tried using a rope three times before eventually lowering a ladder to pull him out.
