The picture shows Wang Dawei on his daily duty

On July 27, the People's Public Security News published an article on the front page about Wang Dawei, director of the Sunjiatan Branch of the Wuzhong Municipal Public Security Bureau, who died heroically while arresting a knife-wielding gangster. The article was titled "The last words before his death: 'I'm here, don't be afraid!'"



Wang Dawei's family members cried at the memorial service

The party member badge and police number lie quietly in the office drawer, the work report on the desk has just been corrected, and the intercom seems to be waiting to be picked up at any time...

Since the summer public security crackdown and rectification campaign was launched, Wang Dawei, director of the Sunjiatan Branch of the Wuzhong Municipal Public Security Bureau, has been fighting continuously and always stayed on the front line. On the evening of July 20, Wang Dawei was unfortunately killed in the line of duty while leading a team to arrest a knife-wielding criminal suspect. He was only 50 years old.

Wang Dawei joined the public security work in July 1994. He served as a police officer, police station chief, deputy chief of Litong District Branch of Wuzhong Public Security Bureau, political commissar and chief of Sunjiatan Branch, and senior police officer of level 4. He was awarded the first-class individual merit once, received personal commendation three times, was named "Outstanding People's Policeman of the District", and was repeatedly named an advanced worker, an outstanding civil servant, and an outstanding Communist Party member.

Crime happened! He once again rushed to the front of the arrest

During the summer security crackdown and rectification operation, Wang Dawei lived in the bureau almost every day to command. On the afternoon of July 19, an accident occurred in the jurisdiction. He stayed up all night to deal with it, and it was the next morning when he returned to the unit.

Wang Dawei lives in Litong District, 35 kilometers away from Sunjiatan Branch. He usually lives at work and has little time to reunite with his family. At noon on July 20, he returned home exhausted. The house was empty, and he remembered that he had missed the weekend trip that his family had agreed to a few days ago.

At about 20:00 that day, the deputy director of the branch on duty, Shen Guojun, called and said: "A major criminal case has occurred in the area, and the suspect fled the scene with a knife."

"First, seal off the scene and provide security, cooperate with medical staff to rescue the injured, and organize police forces to immediately conduct visits and investigations. Notify all police officers and auxiliary police to gather and support the handling of the scene."Wang Dawei listened and made arrangements, then rushed to the scene of the crime.

On the way to the scene, Wang Dawei made several phone calls in succession to arrange and deploy tasks such as rescuing the wounded, sealing off the scene, dispatching police forces, and visiting and investigating.

The crime scene was far from the city, and reinforcements were on the way. In order to prevent the suspect from continuing to hurt others, Wang Dawei arranged several police officers to guard the scene and carry out follow-up work, while he led the team to carry out the search and arrest operation first.

After climbing a dirt slope, the suspect's vehicle appeared near a water bridge, which was built over a 30-meter-deep ditch. The arrest team quickly surrounded the vehicle, but after a careful search, they found that there was no one around the vehicle.

"There's someone on the bridge!" The flashlight flashed across the bridge, and a figure was moving quickly.

Wang Dawei decisively went up the path of the water bridge, and was only one meter away from the suspect, but there was an aqueduct and a fence in between. At this time, the suspect was behind the water, in front of the deep ditch, and on the left and right were open bridge decks. He waved a 20-centimeter-long knife and shouted: "Don't come over!"

The situation was critical, and Wang Dawei quickly adjusted his arrest plan. He turned around and handed the shield to the auxiliary police officer Ma Weijia behind him, and whispered:"You guys shout to attract his attention, I'll flank him from the front."In order not to alert the enemy, Wang Dawei turned off the flashlight. He said to the police and auxiliary police behind him:"Don't be afraid, I'm here!"Holding a baton in his right hand, Wang Dawei jumped over the fence in the dark and approached the suspect.


Wang Dawei fell and died while arresting a knife-wielding gangster

"Someone fell down!" Suddenly someone shouted, and Ma Weijia was shocked. Several police officers and auxiliary police officers rushed to the trench, and a scene no one wanted to see appeared: Wang Dawei was lying on the ground, covered in blood and mud. No matter how his comrades called him, he would never wake up again.

At this moment, the flowing water is sad and the mountains and rivers are weeping.

At this moment, the reinforcements surrounded the suspect. After nearly nine hours of confrontation with the police, the suspect's psychological defense collapsed and he fell off the bridge and was caught on the spot by the police.

The words in the law enforcement recorder, "I'm here, don't be afraid!" became Wang Dawei's last words before his sacrifice.

Dare to take on "tough tasks" and never change your original intention

In 1994, Wang Dawei graduated from the police academy and was assigned to the Litong District Branch of the Wuzhong Municipal Public Security Bureau. He took the initiative to apply for a job at the police station and worked there for 21 years. In his 30-year police career, Wang Dawei worked in 6 police stations, growing from a young policeman to a deputy director, instructor, and director with strong professional skills, strong management ability, and a good mass base. Later, with his rich grassroots work experience and strong professional skills, he gradually grew into the deputy director of the Litong District Branch, the political commissar, and the director of the Sunjiatan Branch.

As time goes by and years pass, his determination to tackle tough problems and his desire to punish evil and promote good have never changed.

On May 5, 2007, Wang Dawei, then director of the Jinyintan Police Station of the Litong District Branch, and police officers found a suspicious vehicle during a night patrol. The driver was evasive when questioned. With years of experience, Wang Dawei and the police immediately conducted an inspection and seized 5,718 grams of heroin on the spot. They also tracked the suspects overnight and arrested two other suspects.

During his tenure as deputy secretary of the Party Committee and deputy director of the Litong District Police Station, Wang Dawei successfully completed the on-site command of many important security activities. He also focused on exploring and promoting the highlights and experiences of community policing reform, and many of his methods are still used today.

In May 2009, several cases of dairy cow theft occurred in Jinyintan. In order to solve the cases as quickly as possible, Wang Dawei led the police station and the criminal investigation team to work continuously for more than four months, arrested 21 criminal suspects, solved 113 criminal cases, and recovered the stolen dairy cows in time.

When faced with danger, he always rushes to the front

People who are familiar with Wang Dawei know that when faced with danger, he is always the first to rush forward.

Upon learning that Wang Dawei had died in the line of duty, retired policeman Yang Zhongming, who had fought alongside him, was filled with grief."He hasn't changed over the years, he's still so brave!"

"In 2007, Wang Dawei and I arrived at the Jinyintan Police Station at the same time. During the 10 years we worked together, at the scene of investigation and arrest, as long as he was there, he would definitely be the first to rush forward..." She Ninghua, an auxiliary police officer at the Jinyintan Police Station of the Liton District Branch, burst into tears.

"In his 30 years of work, he always rushed to the front when there was danger, but he always came home exhausted."During the interview, Wang Dawei's wife Sun Lina choked up.

He is always brave enough to be at the forefront at work, but he is often absent from home. His wife uses her tolerance and generosity to provide Wang Dawei with a warm haven.

Wang Dawei is the pride of his elderly parents. This time, I wonder how long the lie of "Dawei is busy with work" can last...

The son who had just graduated from college saw Wang Dawei lying quietly, his face full of tears:"Dad, you lied to me again. You said you would have more time to spend with me after I graduate..."

Today, the "man of the hour" that has been passed down through word of mouth for many years lives forever in people's hearts with the most loyal, pioneering, fearless and tragic attitude.

In countless critical moments and dangerous situations, his determination always makes those around him feel at ease, and also makes those who care about him feel "uneasy".

The flowers in the courtyard of the Sunjiatan Branch are blooming beautifully, but the good director who even watered the flowers and plants in the courtyard himself will never see such a view again.

The person is gone, but his loyal soul remains.

He works hard at work and rushes to the front when arresting criminal suspects... Wang Dawei's fearless spirit of sacrificing his life and forging ahead bravely has demonstrated the loyalty of a Communist Party member and fulfilled his solemn oath of "the people's police serve the people."

Loyalty stems from deep feelings for the people. Wang Dawei always regards the interests of the people as "big things" and always cares about the people's well-being. He always serves the people warmly in his post.

Great times call for great spirits, and noble causes need the guidance of role models. Public security organs and police officers across the country should learn from Wang Dawei, learn from his political character of being loyal to the Party and always being loyal to the Party, learn from his adherence to his original aspirations and his feelings for the people in safeguarding peace, learn from his sense of responsibility of forging ahead and being a loyal guard, and transform the heroic spirit into the power to move forward.
