Not going to speculate on what’s happened, but it’s crawling with police, ambulances and fire engines all parked up looking over the bridge into the river
 


An all too regular occurrence. Hope it is a good outcome. And the person gets any help needed. But that last bit is often the problem.
 
Someone died early yesterday morning. Confirmed as a young man

Just came across a post from the lads mother on Facebook and seen she has posted screenshots of messages they sent each other not long after midnight on NYE and some photos of him taken earlier that night. Tragic man.

Edit : Sorry this might be a different lad. Saw he was from Seaham and assumed it was the same one but the times don't match up.
