Krasnoyarsk police rescued fishermen who were stuck in the forest for a day (video)

Krasnoyarsk traffic police regiment inspectors provided assistance to three men whose car had skidded deep in the forest.

The victims went fishing, but their car got stuck in a snowdrift. Attempts to get out on their own were unsuccessful and the men had to spend the night in the forest, warming themselves in a car, while the temperature dropped to -30 °C. In the morning they decided to go to a busy highway in search of help.

In the area of ​​86 km of the R-257 Yenisei highway, the men saw a patrol crew consisting of senior police lieutenant Maxim Solodkin and police lieutenant Denis Gurchenko and turned to them. Employees of the traffic police regiment immediately responded to the request. Inspectors moved deeper into the forest for more than an hour to get to the stuck car. Arriving at the scene, they successfully towed the vehicle and ensured it reached the highway safely.

“Thanks to the prompt and professional actions of traffic police inspectors, three fishermen avoided serious consequences to their health and life, and were able to continue on their way. This case once again emphasized the importance of the traffic police service and their willingness to help in the most difficult situations,” noted the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
