Jon Bon Jovi has saved a woman from jumping off the Nashville bridge “ find out more below.
Late last night, the Metro Nashville police department took to social media to confirm that the Bon Jovi frontman had “persuaded” a woman to “come off the ledge over the Cumberland River to safety”.
The Metro Nashville PD also shared a video of the incident, which shows the singer filming a music video when he and his crew noticed the woman hanging off the bridge. He approached her and convinced her to get off the ledge before giving her a hug. The YouTube video has since been taken down due to “policy violations”.
Police chief John Drake said in a statement: “It takes all of us to help keep each other safe.”
