Man's brave sacrifice honored

Hearing the emergency call for help, Wang, without a hint of hesitation, immediately jumped into the river to rescue the duo.

A video recorded at the scene showed that Wang soon reached the mother and took her to the riverbank, while the young boy was still struggling at a farer site.

Wang went back again and lifted the boy up high with his two hands while the currents kept flowing over his head. Trying to stand straight, he handed the boy to his father who came to help.

After bringing the mother and child to safety, Wang himself drowned in the river. The attempt to rescue him unfortunately didn't succeed.
