A police officer sprang to the rescue of an elderly passenger who was tumbling down an escalator in southern China.

The heroic rescue was captured on CCTV in Ruijin City in Jiangxi Province on July 15.

The elderly passenger, identified as Mr. Yang, lost his balance while carrying large luggage and tumbled down the escalator.

In a critical moment, on-duty auxiliary police officer Mao Ning noticed the dangerous situation. Without hesitation, he rushed up the escalator, where other travellers had already pressed the emergency stop button. Mao Ning quickly assisted Mr. Yang, helping him to his feet.

Officer Mao Ning stated, "At that moment, I didn't think about anything else. Seeing a passenger in danger, I ran over immediately. I see this as my duty and responsibility as a police auxiliary and a party member."

Thanks to the timely intervention, Mr. Yang was unharmed and continued his journey on the next train.

7月15日，在瑞金火车站发生惊险一幕。老人乘坐扶梯时不慎摔倒，危急时刻，一名辅警快速赶来，最终化险为夷。
事发时，两位老人乘车前往厦门探亲，乘坐扶梯时杨某因携带大件行李未扶稳不慎摔倒，并连续滚下，几经尝试仍无法站起。这时正在车站执勤的派出所辅警发现了琮危险情况，一个健步冲到了扶梯上，将自动扶梯按停，随后上前将摔倒老人杨某扶起。
瑞金车站公安派出所辅警 毛宁说：当时我什么都没想，看到旅客有危险我一下子冲过去了。我认为这是我作为公安辅警和一名党员所担负的责任和使命。
由于救助及时，老人身体并无大碍，并乘坐后面的列车顺利踏上前往厦门的旅程。
