The video footage circulated online showed that rescue personnel wearing diving suits and pulling ropes to dive into the water to search and rescue. The river was very wide and the water was very turbulent.

On the morning of the 26th, a reporter from New Yellow River called the Publicity Department of Jinchuan County Party Committee, and the staff said that they were still searching and investigating, and other details were not clear. The staff member said that He Xiaoqing was a village cadre stationed in Desheng Village, and the specific details were subject to subsequent official announcements.

"We arrived at the scene at 2:30 p.m. on the 22nd (2:30 a.m. on the 23rd), and we found the crashed vehicle on the morning of the 23rd." Gou Shaolin, captain of the Chengdu Dujiangyan Blue Sky Rescue Team, told the New Yellow River reporter that He Xiaoqing was driving the vehicle alone and fell into the river from a vertical distance of about 80 meters. Since the place where the vehicle crashed was not suitable for mechanical operations, it was impossible to salvage the crashed vehicle. "We initially determined that the person was in the car and is still out of contact. The search and rescue work is still ongoing."
