BANGKOK - A baby girl has fallen down a 13m well in remote rural Thailand, authorities said on Tuesday, with rescuers digging through the night to save the child.
The girl, aged 19 months, fell into the 30cm-wide well in Tak province, near the Myanmar border, while playing on Monday afternoon. Rescuers worked through the night using a mechanical digger to reach the girl, who is the daughter of migrant workers from Myanmar. “We have almost reached her and she’s still alive,” Phop Phra police chief Ratsaran Ketsoising told AFP.
Video images from the scene showed rescuers in hard hats working at the bottom of a deep gully of red earth, as well as an ambulance standing by. AFPล่าสุด 00.00 น ทีมงานกู้ภัย ได้ตรวจสัญญาณชีพ พบว่าน้องยังมีสัญญาณชีพอยู่ #เด็กตกบ่อบาดาล Cr:หัวหน้าก้อย กิตติศักดิ์ บุญจันทร์
