Kind-hearted passersby also took her to the hospital
Good Samaritans helped and even took her to the hospital
Wu Bing told reporters that at around 3:30 p.m. that day, he received a call from his friend saying that his wife, Ms. Xiang, had been hit by a car, but he couldn’t leave due to prior commitments, so he asked Wu Bing for help. Wu Bing immediately rushed to the scene and saw Ms. Xiang sitting by the roadside, her injured left hand already treated simply. Wu Bing said Ms. Xiang had been knocked down by a motorcycle, and the driver fled the scene immediately. Ms. Xiang said she encountered several kind passersby who helped her up and bandaged her wound.
Afterwards, Wu Bing took Ms. Xiang to a local hospital for examination. Her left hand was stitched in four places, and she suffered fractures in her lumbar vertebrae and coccyx. The doctor advised her to be hospitalized. However, because her mother was in poor health, her child was in school, and she worried about not being able to find the hit-and-run driver and could not afford the high medical expenses, Ms. Xiang refused treatment. But that evening, her worried family still took her to a city hospital for further examination and treatment.
Leaving the hit-and-run vehicle's license plate as a clue
Yesterday afternoon, reporters contacted Ms. Xiang, who said she hoped the hit-and-run driver could be found as soon as possible. The several days of treatment had cost more than 2,000 yuan, which was no small amount for her. As for the kind-hearted people who helped her on the road, she expressed her gratitude. “There were cars coming and going on the road. If they hadn’t moved me to the side of the road and bandaged my wounds, my injuries might have been worse.”
Getting the license plate number of the hit-and-run vehicle as a clue
“Because we were cycling, we happened to have simple first aid supplies, and I just happened to be a medical student, so I gave the lady some basic treatment,” said Leng Yue. He explained that he used cotton swabs and hydrogen peroxide to treat Ms. Xiang’s wound simply, but since she complained of back pain and there was concern about internal injuries, he advised her to go to the hospital for an examination. Because it was getting late, after the group noted down the license plate number of the hit-and-run vehicle, they hurried on their way.
