重庆再现电梯"吞人"事件 一维修工被卡住

A technician in Chongqing has suffered extensive injuries after falling into a moving escalator he was in the process of repairing and having to be pulled out.

日前，重庆市一名技术工人在修理电梯时不慎被卷入，受伤严重，众人协力才将其救出。

The unnamed workman was pulled into the device and miraculously managed to avoid being crushed to death by the machinery as only his head remained visible from the outside.

这名未透露姓名的工人被卷进了电梯里，但是他却奇迹般地生还了。当时从电梯外面只能看到他的头。

He was reportedly repairing the device in Beibei District of Chongqing, a major city in south-west China, when he accidentally fell into the escalator.

据报道，当时这名工人正在重庆北碚区修理一座电梯，后来他不慎被卷入到了电梯里面。

The outdoor escalator was stopped just in time as the worker was sucked into its moving parts, and local firefighters were called to free the man from within the machinery as hundreds of terrified shoppers gathered around to watch the drama unfold.

当这名工人被卷入电梯时，人们及时地停止了这座户外扶梯。当地消防人员紧急赶到现场，将这名工人从电梯中解救了出来。当时还有数百名受惊的购物者聚在周围，围观解救过程。

Those fearing the worst for the workman were relieved to hear that he was still alive inside the escalator, although seriously injured and quickly losing consciousness. Arriving firefighters managed to prise his body out of the device and rush him to hospital.

当得知被困于电梯中的工人还活着的时候，围观的群众都松了一口气。这名工人受伤非常严重，很快就失去了意识。赶到现场的消防员成功将他的身体从电梯里撬了出来，并把他紧急送往了医院。

He is now receiving treatment in the trauma centre of a hospital, but his condition is still unknown.

这名工人目前正在一家医院的临时急救中心接受治疗，但是还不知道他的具体情况。

Reports said the escalator 'suddenly became operational' as the workman was fixing it. Investigators have yet to determine the cause of the accident.

有报道称，当这名工人正在修理这座电梯的时候，它“突然动了起来”。调查人员目前尚未确定事故发生的原因。
