Two suicides

Docklands suffered two water-borne suicides in a week last month.

On November 13 a man’s body was found floating in the water at NewQuay Promenade at around 4.30pm.

A couple walking along the promenade saw the body and contacted the police. The man reportedly entered the water and started cutting himself.

The following day in Victoria Harbour police recovered another body of a man who reportedly jumped off the Bolte Bridge.

Metropolitan media have reported that Transurban is installing fences on the Bolte Bridge to prevent suicides.
