The citizens who received certificates of appreciation on this day rushed into the flames or helped with the rescue when a car driven by a man in his 40s crashed into the guardrail and caught fire on the road in front of the Busan Tunnel on the 21st.

Since the car door was broken and could not be opened, they broke the window to rescue the unconscious driver and performed CPR. Some extinguished the fire with fire extinguishers, while others helped control traffic, assisting with traffic management at the dangerous scene.

Jang Won-seok, chief of the Jungbu Police Station, presented certificates of appreciation and awards to the six citizen heroes. Chief Jang praised them, saying, “They are true citizen heroes who saved precious lives in an emergency situation.”

The police also gifted the citizen heroes with emergency hammers for vehicle escape and vehicle fire extinguishers.
