A Mumbai cop, Sandeep Bhosle, pulled out a five-year-old boy from the tracks and saved him from an approaching train at Ambernath Station on Sunday.
The incident has been captured by local CCTV cameras. If you want to grasp the full force of the phrase, nick of time, this is the video to watch.
The CCTV footage shows a train coming in, a small boy on track, trying to climb to the platform. As other horrified passengers look on, he is too short to make it.
You see a man dropping his bag to reach out to the boy and pull him up to safety, just as the train passes.
Mid Day identified the man as constable Sandeep Bhosle of ATS. A Mahim resident, he was with his family waiting for a train to CST when he saw the boy on track.
The boy was reportedly waiting for his parents on the other side of the platform, who had gone to buy tickets. He saw them on the other platform and got down to the tracks to cross over.
Bhosle said he was thinking of his child of the same age. He says everyone should do the same in a situation like this.
