A traveling ticket teller of a suburban train in the Altai Territory helped an elderly passenger with memory loss. He didn't know exactly where he was going. It turned out that relatives had been looking for him for a long time.
As told in the press center of the Ministry of Transport of the Altai Territory, on the train on the route “Barnaul – Zarinskaya”, the conductor drew attention to an elderly man who looked confused. After asking him a few questions, she realized that the passenger did not understand where he was going and was not bound to answer.
The woman quickly navigated and passed on information about the elderly person to the transport police officer. The commuter train's traveling ticket counter looked after the passenger until the final stop of the route. There, together with the transport police, they found out that this man is listed as missing, and relatives have long been looking for him. He also has memory loss.
The guide helped the elderly man return home, escorting him to Barnaul, where his daughter met him.
“We thank the train conductor Irina Karigin for his professional actions in an unusual situation. She was encouraged by the road management and received a letter of thanks from the Altai Linear Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, the ministry said.
