Cars stopped but no one was helping me, says Limerick woman who saved man from suicide

A young woman who talked a man down from a bridge after he threatened to kill himself in the River Shannon has called for greater awareness surrounding suicide and depression.

Shauna O'Riordan, 19, said she was "absolutely shocked" when no one came to her aid as she clung to the man's legs after he clambered up on Shannon Bridge, in Limerick.
