Thanks to some holiday heroes in the NYFD and PD, 22 years young and again fortunately not a statistic today in NYC.
A 22-year-old woman was rescued from the frigid East River this morning after she jumped from the
Brooklyn Bridge. One of her rescuers, Detective Michael Cocchi, said of the save: "It feels good."
NYPOST.com: "A woman wearing just pajamas hurled herself off the Brooklyn Bridge this morning, and miraculously survived a 100-foot plunge into the frigid East River, cops said.
The 22-year-old, who has not been named but is from Manhattan, was dragged from the water by police divers and is being treated for severe hypothermia.
She leapt after walking to the midspan of the bridge shortly after 7 a.m., police said.
'It was extremely cold,' said Detective Michael Cocchi, 42, one of two police divers who hauled the woman from the water.
'I think she was in shock. She was floating, she didn’t move, she didn’t talk.'" read more
