The Rapid Response Squad (RRS) of the Lagos State Police Command has saved an elderly woman who attempted to jump into the lagoon from the Carter Bridge.
The RRS disclosed this in a post on its X handle, @rrsLagos767, yesterday.
According to the post, the operatives were on patrol around 12:20 p.m. on Friday when they successfully intervened and stopped the woman from taking her life.
“She was taken to the RRS Headquarters, where the Commander, CSP Shola Jejeloye, listened to her story.”
“Afterwards, CSP Jejeloye allowed her, along with her husband and their 30-year-old son, to hold a private family meeting to address and resolve their differences.”
“Following the meeting, the commander counseled the woman extensively and offered her a cash gift.”
“The family expressed deep gratitude to the commander for the squad’s timely intervention, his heartfelt advice, and the financial support,” the statement added.
