It is an act of bravery that deserves to be commended. Witness of a fall from a bridge, a young woman from Nantes did not hesitate for a second to jump into the water to help the victim.
The facts took place this Thursday, February 24, around 1 p.m. While walking near the Anne de Bretagne bridge, between the city center and the island of Nantes, a young woman of twenty-five saw a person jump, accidentally or voluntarily, into the Loire. That day, the river was particularly cool and agitated by the storm Eunice which has just hit western France.
Witness to the scene and despite the danger, the Nantes woman jumped into the water to try to save the woman in her forties. Despite the speed of the current, they both managed to reach the shore before help arrived. Slightly injured, they were transported by firefighters to Nantes University Hospital.
Bravo for this saving gesture.
