Eldorado 55,503 #1 Posted November 16, 2020 A British diplomat has been hailed as a hero after diving into a river in China to save a drowning student. Stephen Ellison, 61, consul-general in Chongqing, was walking by a river in a nearby village when the woman, 24, slipped on rocks into the deep water. Footage filmed by onlookers showed her struggle in the fast-moving current, disappear under a footbridge and emerge face down, apparently unconscious. Mr Ellison took off his shoes and dived in to save her. She has not been named. Full monty at the BBC: Link 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
