Aug. 15 (UPI) -- Police, firefighters and paramedics responded in force to the Moerdijk Bridge in the Netherlands, where they discovered a reported suicide attempt was actually just a trucker trying to cool off.
Dordrecht Police wrote on social media that helicopter units responded alongside firefighters, EMS personnel and the Royal Netherlands Sea Rescue Institution after a man was reported to have parked his truck on the shoulder of the A16 highway and jumped from the bridge into the Hollands Diep river.
The responders arrived to find the man had made his way to a ladder, where he hailed a passing boat and got a lift back to shore.
