Medics took the responding Broward Sheriff’s Office deputy to a local hospital as a precaution after he or she was potentially exposed to that substance
Video taken from one of the officer’s in vehicle systems shows the officers appeared to have talked the man away from the guardrail, but he turned back and jumped.
Deputy Aliyah Miller saw the distraught woman and the Columbus officer walking toward her. The sheriff’s office said on Facebook that Miller “realized the woman had a baby and was threatening to jump into the river with the infant.”
