日前,德克萨斯州一名被困在一台提款机里的男子,从收据槽里滑出一张写着“help me”的纸条。
A Texas man who found himself trapped inside a cash machine slipped "help me" notes through the receipt slot.
警方表示,这名男子当时是在提款机里做一些维修工作,他的手机放在了车里,而他被困在ATM的机房里出不来了。
The man, who police say was working on a renovation of the bank, left his phone in his vehicle before getting stuck in the drive-thru ATM's vault.
据悉,警方为了救他砸开了ATM机房的门,他们之前以为这是场恶作剧。
Police thought it a hoax before kicking in a door to withdraw him.
警官理查德·奥尔登表示:“我们很确定,我们听到的声音来自的机器里面,我们都认为这是一个恶作剧。”
"Sure enough, we can hear a little voice coming from the machine, so we're all thinking this is a joke, it's gotta be a joke," said police officer Richard Olden.
这名被困男子向一名客户传了一张手写便条,上面写着:“请帮帮我,我困在里面,我没有手机。请打电话给我的老板。”他还写上了老板的电话号码。
One handwritten note slipped by the trapped man to a customer said: "Please Help. I'm stuck in here, and I don't have my phone. Please call my boss." The message included the employer's phone number.
在这台美国银行的机器里呆了两个多小时后,这名男子终于被救了出来。
The man was freed after spending more than two hours inside the Bank of America machine.
奥尔登警官告诉当地媒体:“每个人都很好,但是你可能一辈子也遇不到真的有人被困在ATM机里,这太不可思议了。”
Officer Olden told local media: "Everyone is okay, but you will never see this in your life, that somebody was stuck in the ATM, it was just crazy."
