Woman talked down from Scarborough Bridge
A WOMAN has been talked down from a bridge in York after threatening to jump.
Emergency crews were called to Scarborough Bridge at 3am to speak with the woman.
North Yorkshire Fire and Rescuse sent a boat crew to the scene from York and two crews from Acomb.
They were not required, however, as police carried out negotiations with the female to persuade her to climb down.
