The day before Mother’s Day, a woman in Saginaw, Michigan, was contemplating ending it all. Several people spotted her inching her way along the outside railing of the Rust Street Bridge and stopped to try to help.
Local Dion Mason stopped and tried to engage with the woman, asking her what was the matter and pleading with her not to jump.
“What’s wrong? What’s wrong?” he said in the video he posted to Facebook. “You all right? Girl, you gotta come on up, up over here.”
He got out of his car and approached the woman cautiously, continuing to ask, “What’s wrong, baby?”
Someone else arrived and tried to engage her, but she continued to ignore them and work her way down the bridge toward the middle of the river.
