Singer Bon Jovi is being hailed as a hero after preventing a woman from jumping off a bridge in Nashville, USA.
Jon Bon Jovi was filming a music video when the incident occurred. He was on the Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge in Nashville, USA, when he noticed a woman had climbed over the fence and placed herself in a very dangerous position.
In footage captured by security cameras and later shared by the Police Department, Bon Jovi and another person can be seen carefully approaching the woman. The pair appear to talk to her and then help her back to safety on the bridge.
“A special thank you to @jonbonjovi and his team for assisting a woman on the Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge on Tuesday night. Bon Jovi helped persuade her off the ledge over the Cumberland River to safety,” said the Nashville Metropolitan Police Department in a social media post.
“It takes all of us to help keep each other safe,” added John Drake, the Police Department’s chief.
