A woman was rescued after falling from a new bridge in the seaside town of Ban Suan in Chon Buri province. The incident occurred yesterday evening when local municipal officers were notified that a woman had fallen off the new bridge in the main city district.

 

The rescue team launched a drone to trace the woman and found her sitting in distress on the base of a concrete pillar of the bridge, which is approximately 5 metres above sea level.

 

Witnesses to the incident recorded that a man, presumed to be her boyfriend, was comforting her at the time. In an attempt to rescue the woman and bring her back to safety, local officials lowered a rope for her to use.

 

However, the woman refused to climb back up due to embarrassment as hundreds of tourists and officials were spectating from the top of the bridge. Many onlookers recorded the incident on their phones and shared it on social networks which exacerbated the woman’s distress, reported KhaoSod.
