Yangzi Evening News (correspondent Ye Fanglong, Hu Wenhao, reporter Fan Xiaolin): A tragedy happened in a clothing factory in Ma'an Street, Liuhe District, Nanjing the day before yesterday afternoon. A working woman took her 5-year-old son to work with her in order to go to her relatives' home to drink after work in the evening. Unexpectedly, while his mother was busy with her work, the boy slipped into the pond while playing alone near the factory. When the guard master found out, he rescued the boy floating on the water and died after 120 rescue.

Yesterday, a reporter from the Yangtze Evening News saw at the scene of the incident in Pingshan Village Industrial Park, Ma'an Street, that there are many enterprises in the park at present, and not many people work on weekends. Only a few garment factories are working overtime. At the end of the yard is a deadly pond. The garment factory where the female worker Tang works is close to a reservoir of about 3 square meters, There is a pool next to the reservoir. It is estimated that the child fell into the pool and drowned when playing near the reservoir.

According to the employees of the enterprises in the park, the child's mother, Mr. Tang, has worked in the garment factory in the industrial park for several years. The day before yesterday, the garment factory informed the employees to work overtime temporarily in order to rush out a batch of orders. On the same day, Mr. Tang was going to have a wedding party at his relatives' home in the evening. In order to save travel time, he took his 5-year-old son, who was left unattended during the holiday, to the factory. At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Tang went to the toilet. At first, his 5-year-old son waited for her outside the toilet. After a while, colleagues in the factory shouted to her outside the toilet to go to the warehouse to get materials. Because Tang was busy getting materials, he let his son play in the yard of the factory alone. But unexpectedly, after receiving materials, Tang found that his son Dongdong had not come back, so he went to the workshop and various offices to look for them. The worker told her that she had not seen her child. Other colleagues in the factory felt wrong when they learned that they had left their jobs and helped to find the child together. Dozens of colleagues searched almost every corner of the factory, but still found no trace of the child.

At 4:20 in the afternoon, when the gatekeeper of the factory was looking for a pool next to the clothing factory, he found a man floating on the water and hurried to shout. At this time, people rushed to the pool and saved the child, but it was too late. The police remind the public that the summer vacation is coming, and office workers should strengthen the education and careful care of their children to prevent drowning, electric shock, fire and other injuries caused by parents' negligence.
