Mrs. Taiwo Momoh
 
We reported few hours ago that a woman identified as Taiwo Titilayo Momoh who attempted to jump into the Lagoon from the popular Third Mainland Bridge on Friday, March 24, was rescued by the operatives of the Lagos State Police Command.
 
It was gathered that she was in a taxi heading towards Oworonshoki on Third Mainland Bridge when she told the taxi driver to stop on the bridge. She was about to jump into the lagoon when a police patrol team on a routine patrol sighted her and rushed to save her before she jumped into the Lagoon.
