Speak with someone today CINCINNATI, Ohio — The Cincinnati Police Department released body-worn camera footage showing the moment an officer helped rescue a woman in distress near the top of a parking garage, WLWT reported.
In the video of the November 2024 incident, officers can be seen rushing to the top level of the garage, where the woman appears visibly upset as police urge her not to jump.
“I know times are tough, but listen to me, don’t jump,” Officer Newman says. “Let us help you.”
During the four-minute exchange, Newman and the woman discuss the loss of their children, with the officer offering support.
“I lost my daughter many years ago, and I wish she could be here,” Newman said. “…There are angels looking over us…there’s an angel for you.”
After about three minutes, officers safely pulled her from the edge.
“I think that God sent me here to talk to you because I understand how you feel,” Newman told the woman before helping her over the railing.
