People injured when a wall fell on top of them on Sunday in northwest China's Gansu Province have shared their memories of the fatal accident. High winds blew down the wall in provincial capital Lanzhou, killing two and injuring seven. One person was confirmed dead at the scene and another later died in hospital. Many passersby came to help immediately after the accident, trying to buy more time for the injured before medics and firefighters arrived. "I felt something coming over me, so I lifted up my arm to cover my head. Then I just leaned over and fell down to the ground," said Geng Ming, one of the injured. He said that thanks to the strangers who came to help in time, he only suffered minor injuries. Two of the people injured were young girls. They are both in good condition. "The wall hit my mom and me [and my sister]. My sister and I climbed out and then a man and a woman brought us to the hospital here," said Guo Jingru, one of the girls injured in the accident. Their mom was badly injured and is still receiving treatment. Doctors said that three of the seven injured are still in critical condition and they are doing everything in their power to help them.
