JAKARTA - A boy was trapped in his room at his house on Setu Indah Housing Street, RT 09/04, Setu Village, Cipayung District, East Jakarta, Thursday, September 19.

The victim was trapped in a room with the door of the room tightly locked. The child's parents panicked, so they were forced to report to Gulkarmat officers for the evacuation process.

According to the reporter's statement, when the victim was in the room, the door lock was damaged, causing the victim to be trapped.

Then as many as 3 officers from the rescue unit of the East Jakarta Gulkarmat Sub-dept. were deployed to the location for the evacuation process.

"The cause was because the ignition of the complainant's room was damaged, resulting in the victim's son being locked in the room," said the East Jakarta Gulkarmat Sub-dept. picket officer.

The rescue evacuation process used hoodigan tools to help open the bedroom door. The evacuation process was brief. Officers only spent three minutes then the door was successfully opened.

"The evacuation of children locked in the room was successful, the victim survived," he said.
