Police use drone to find missing elderly man

A 73-year-old man in Putian City, east China's Fujian Province, went missing after leaving home alone and entering the mountains. After receiving an emergency call, the local police station quickly launched an air-ground coordinated search and rescue operation.

Using drones equipped with thermal imaging, police conducted eight hours of continuous aerial searches and ultimately pinpointed his exact location. Ground rescue personnel then cut a path through the dense forest, rescuing the man, who had been trapped for 28 hours, and escorting him to safety.
