On June 10, 2026, an elevator at the Ganlan Jiayuan residential complex in Qiyang, Hunan, broke down and stopped operating. After a security guard forced the doors open with a key, a female resident who had been trapped fell about 20 meters into the elevator shaft as she was leaving the elevator and died despite rescue efforts.
