The reporter learned from the Beijing Municipal Fire Rescue Brigade that on August 2nd, the Ministry of Emergency Management approved Comrade Feng Zhen, a first-class firefighter who sacrificed his life at the Bei'anhe Fire Rescue Station in Haidian District, Beijing, during the rescue of trapped people in the flash flood on Bei'an Hebei Road. The National Fire Rescue Bureau commemorated Comrade Feng Zhen's personal first-class merit.
At 11:49 am on July 31st, the command center of the Haidian District Fire Rescue Brigade in Beijing received a report that three people were trapped in the Haidian Driving School Zhonglian Automobile Trading Market due to a flood. Rescue forces were immediately dispatched to the scene for disposal. At 12:15, when the rescue team at Xixiaoying Small Station was driving to Bei'an North Road, they suddenly encountered a crowd trapped in a flash flood and beckoned to the team for help. The situation was extremely critical. Commander Feng Zhen ordered the team to immediately stop and organize rescue operations. They used fire trucks to establish rope safety protection on site, put on life jackets, and led the team to approach the trapped people through the rapids of the flood.
During the rescue process, due to the sudden surge of floods, a team member was knocked down by the rapids. Despite his personal safety, Feng Zhen made every effort to push his comrades to a safe area. Trapped masses and team members were safely rescued, and Feng Zhen was washed away by floods due to continuous physical exhaustion during battles. The personnel in the same vehicle, together with local cadres and people, quickly carried out search and rescue. At 12:47, Feng Zhen was found about 1 kilometer downstream and immediately underwent cardiopulmonary resuscitation for emergency treatment. They were immediately sent to the hospital for treatment, and coordinated with the health department and medical experts to participate in the rescue. After more than 5 hours of intensive treatment, at 18:22, Comrade Feng Zhen died heroically due to ineffective rescue efforts.
Feng Zhen, male, Han ethnicity, born in December 1992 in Wenshang County, Jining, Shandong Province, is a member of the Communist Party of China with a college degree. He is unmarried and participated in firefighting and rescue work in December 2009. Before his death, he was the monitor of the special operations team of Bei'anhe firefighting and rescue station in Haidian District, Beijing, and the station manager of Xixiaoying small station. He holds the rank of first-class firefighter in firefighting and rescue.
In the midst of the flood, I offer my beautiful body, my mountains and rivers are moving.
