A thrilling accident occurred yesterday morning in Nanshan Village, Datong Township, Yilan County. A farmer surnamed Chen, who was in her 50s, was working in her vegetable garden. As her field was close to a cliff, she accidentally lost her footing and fell directly into a ravine because her field was close to a cliff. Fortunately, Chen's life was spared. She fell about 70 meters and got stuck in the vegetation on the mountainside. She calmly called the police for help and was finally rescued.

Miraculously, Mrs. Chen did not fall to the bottom of the 100-meter valley, and was lucky to remain conscious. She endured the severe pain, took out the mobile phone she carried with her from her pocket, and called her relatives and friends for help. Upon hearing this, her friends immediately reported 119, and the Nanshan Police Station of the Samsung Police Station also received a report simultaneously.

After receiving the report, Nanshan Director Ke Rongfa immediately coordinated the police, firefighters, civil defense volunteers, and enthusiastic tribal residents to rush to the rescue. Due to the extremely steep terrain of the mountainous area, Chen's wife was stuck on a cliff nearly 100 meters away from the road, which greatly increased the difficulty of search and rescue. After the rescuers visually confirmed the location of the injured, they immediately set up rope equipment to carry out hanging rescue.

After nearly 2 hours of arduous rescue, everyone successfully pulled the trapped woman back to a safe road. After the ambulancemen initially bandaged and fixed the injury, she was sent to Luodong Our Lady of Hospital by ambulance for treatment. The police appeal to the public who are farming on steep slopes in mountainous areas to pay attention to their steps at all times and stay away from the slopes for safety.
