In preparation for an earthquake directly beneath the capital, the Metropolitan Police Department conducted rescue training using a building scheduled to be demolished on the 15th, and confirmed the procedure for actually breaking the wall and rescuing a person trapped inside the room.

This training was conducted jointly by the Ueno Police Department of the Metropolitan Police Department and NTT East Japan, which are to conclude an agreement in the event of a disaster this month. People gathered.



Assuming that an earthquake directly beneath the Tokyo metropolitan area occurred, NTT East staff first used an aerial work platform to check the damage to the surrounding area, and said, "Some people were left behind because the first floor of the building collapsed." I notified the Metropolitan Police Department.

Then, a member of the Metropolitan Police Department's MTF, who rushed in after receiving the report, hung a rope from the roof of the 9-story building and entered the building.



Then, he confirmed a series of steps from actually breaking the wall with a hammer to rescue the person trapped inside the room and carrying it out on a stretcher.



Yoshie Suzuki, chief of the Ueno Police Station, said, "I would like to continue to carry out practical training like this time so that I can respond whenever a disaster occurs."
