Helicopter over Walkley/Hillsborough

[Natalie88 10]

Just tried to drive through Hillsborough and had to U-turn.

There were various emergency vehicles (about 3 fire engines, paramedics...)at the corner near the bridge/river opposite Chatanogas take away on Holme Lane.

 

Anybody know what had happened? Hopefully nothing serious.

Some fella fell in the weir according to Fox20thc. Hope he's okay.

Look at the posts under the 'police helicopter in Walkley'. There are a few posts on their re. this thread.

someone who has just come from there has just told me - a fella and his gf was arguing and he got angry and jumped off, according to her he's still alive.

All the police lady said when I asked was a male had gone over the wall. Fire crews were down there with ladders ambulance on standby, I didn't hang around the 200 odd 'spectators' were enough for the authorities to deal with.

 

Holme lane and Langsett rd were closed as I went past.

Argueing then just jumped off? As you do like...

Five fire engines parked outside Chatanoga.

 

Hope it's not more serious than a few burnt pizzas (the shop itself looked fine actually so it might be further down).

Edit: Wrong thread

Why are 5 fire crews needed to pull a jumper out of the water? It's not even deep or especially fast flowing. No ambulances or police there either.
