Three Lives Hang in the Balance
Pregnant woman holds tightly to life.
Summer Bay scene of pending tragedy was stalled by young man’s quick thinking.
Kim a local man gasped as he saw the car his wife and child in hanging dangerously over a cliff. Panic soon turned into action as he sent friend back to town for help. Kim made his way down the slope to the vehicle urging the mother of his not yet born baby to reach for his hand and trust that he could pull her to safety. The young woman seemed to be in a pre labor condition and it was imperative that she get to hospital. Kim kept his emotions in control as he tied a rope round his waist and made his way further down the cliff face to save his wife.
This young man should be the hero of what could have been a very tragic event. Speaking to Kim at the Hospital reporter Chrissie Faye asked Kim how he was able to put his emotions to one side and pull of such a daring rescue. “I do not really know, all I could see was everything I loved being taken from me and I just did what I thought was right at the time.” Kim replied.
On further investigation of this event we were told that the pregnant girl is carrying Kim’s child, she had called Kim’s wife by telephone alerting her that she was in pre labor. When Rachel Kim’s wife who is a doctor got to the girl she realized that she needed drastic help only available at the hospital some miles away. The two began the drive, but as the girl became more and more frantic with pain and fear she dropped a mobile phone on the floor of the vehicle. The phone logged beneath the break petal. Rachel was taken by surprise loosing control of the vehicle which plummeted through some road works signs and over a cliff, leaving the car precariously hanging over the ocean by some of the plastic fencing.
Local CES spokesman Alf told Chrissie that Kim would be honored in some way for his quick responses to such a deadly situation. He would also take this matter up with council as the site could have been better fence, which may have averted such an incident.
