We are Ah Hin and Ah Ming, officers of Patrol Sub-unit 3 of Lok Ma Chau Division (LMCDIV). On April 23, while we were on patrol, we received a report that a hiker was trapped on Ki Lun Shan. We swiftly arrived at the scene and located the informant and his friends at the foot of the mountain. We learnt that one of the informant’s friends suffered from heat stroke and leg injuries and was trapped on the mountain.
Meanwhile, officers of the Government Flying Service (GFS) and the Fire Services Department also arrived at the scene to rescue the trapped hiker. Despite the hot weather, we passed through rugged paths and woods and finally located the hiker on the hillside. The hiker was in a conscious state but he was unable to walk because of his leg injuries, so he was conveyed to hospital by a GFS helicopter for medical treatment.
Recently, one of the hikers wrote a compliment letter to express his appreciation to officers for their professionalism. The recognition and encouragement from citizens have brought us great satisfaction. We will continue to perform our duties with professionalism and serve citizens with Honour, Duty and Loyalty.
