FCSO Saves Teen Trying to Jump Off I 95 Bridge Sheriff Implores DCF to Step in

Earlier this afternoon, the Flagler County Sheriffs Office (FCSO) received calls from multiple bystanders who reported that a juvenile was standing on the outside of the overpass bridge of Palm Coast Parkway and I95 and threatening to jump. Deputies shut down Palm Coast Parkway and I95 rerouting traffic as multiple agencies responded, including the FCSO Crisis Negotiations Team (CNT), Flagler Beach Police Department (FBPD), Palm Coast Fire Department (PCFD), and Florida Highway Patrol (FHP). Due to previous engagements with law enforcement, deputies were aware that the juvenile doesnt like males and formed a female negotiation team to assist in the juveniles rescue. With the assistance of the PCFD, the juvenile was successfully rescued by using a fire engine ladder, and DFC Rainey secured her, safely bringing her to the ground after an hour of negotiations.
