According to Jungcheng his wife stepped onto a manhole cover which suddenly moved - causing her to plummet down the hole. "I instantly caught her clothes, but she still dropped down," he said. Emergency services were called and a firefighter clambered down into the 3m deep hole in order to help Lu climb out.
