Operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) of the Lagos Police Command have prevented a girl from taking his life by jumping into the lagoon.
The young girl (names withheld) was attempting to jump into the lagoon outward Iyana Oworo end of the bridge Third when she was rescued.
The lady in a light conversation revealed that “I was beaten at home, that is why I ran away to commit suicide”.
Our correspondent learnt that the officers’ attention was drawn to the lady by a dispatch rider before racing to the scene to restrain her from jumping into the lagoon.
It was also gathered that she has been conveyed to Iyana Oworo Police Division, where efforts are in progress to contact family members.
