During last night’s suicide prevention patrol, volunteers observed a person?climbing over the rails at 11:25 p.m. The individual was in a distressed state and intended to take his life by drowning.
Members of our foot patrol team, who are specially trained by the HSE, approached and spoke to the person. Our rescue boat was also observing and ready to act.
At 11:59 p.m, officers of An Garda S?och?na assisted the man to the right side of the railings, where he was then brought to safety. We would like to wish the person a speedy recovery and thank you to Irish Coast Guard for coordinating the incident.
