Just a little insight to our daily role as a Police Communtiy Support Officer here within Isla Altis.
Myself PCSO TANNER along with my Colleauge PCSO HAGRID responded to a Grade 1 Potential Suicide Call during the early hours of Thursday 19th December, approxmitley 03:18 am. As we were dealing with a welfare check in Kavala at the time.. we accepted this job, and responded accordingly on a Blue Light run, due to the nature of the call. We arrived on scene to find a young, and clearly distressed & vunerable male, stood at the end of a jetty.. attempting to take his own life. While keeping our Control room updated, we focused our attention on the young man's welfare and safety, reassuring him that we were there to help. At this time our other colleauge PC ALFRED [2632] arrived with tea, crumpets and a warmkit for the male..
Unfortunatley the victim was spooked by a passing aircraft and fell backwards off the pier, and below the water level.. however, due to the quick thinking intiative of our officers on the scene, they swam down, and brought the male back up and onto the beach head. During this time our SPO - CI LASTNICKLEFT [7111] had contacted the NHS for urgent medical assistance, secured the area for a Emergency landing, and co-ordinated a succesfull role of protecting and ensuring the safety and wellbeing of a member of the public. The young male was treated by PARAMEDIC JeTZz [MTO] , the male was then flown out to Kavala District Hospital, where our officers later visited to check up on the individual. Thanking all those involved, including members of the public in the community, I believe it was a job well done.
