BUTTERWORTH: A 10-year-old boy had to stop vehicles on the Penang Bridge while his father jumped into the sea to save his mother after she had fallen over today.
A state Fire and Rescue Department spokesman said that in the 4.30 pm incident at KM 1 of the bridge, heading towards the island, the 45-year-old woman is believed to have fallen into the sea when her husband stopped his motorcycle by the side of the bridge.
As the man jumped into the sea to save her, their son stopped passing vehicles to seek help and call the authorities.
