[Anchor] Police and citizens joined forces to rush an emergency baby to the hospital, is that correct?
[Reporter] Last month, an emergency report was received in Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul, stating that a wet wipe packaging wrapper was stuck in the throat of a 7-month-old infant.
At the time, all available ambulances were dispatched to other sites, leaving no ambulance immediately available for dispatch.
The police put the baby and the guardian into a patrol car and headed for the emergency room at Hanyang University Hospital.
Another patrol car drove ahead to secure the route, but roads were heavily congested everywhere due to the weekend coinciding with a local festival.
However, upon hearing the siren, citizens began moving their vehicles to the left and right one by one, creating a path for the patrol car to pass through.
Thanks to the cooperation of the citizens, the baby was quickly transported to the hospital, received treatment, and returned home safely. The guardian later visited the police station in person to express gratitude to the police officers.
