Recent tragedy with a happy ending: a young man tried to jump into the Wall, but was rescued by four police officers

On July 9th, 2026, a young man from the area of Lendava was reported missing after experiencing severe personal distress. The Operational Communication Center of the Police Station Murska Sobota was alerted, and through coordinated efforts, four police officers—Bojan Bertalanič, Boštjan Hren, Sandi Makoter, and Dejan Kranjec—located the individual on a bridge over the Mura River, where he was endangering his life by reaching toward the river. Two officers approached him from different directions—one along the bridge and another from the riverbank—to ensure safety. The officer who reached him calmed him down, guided him away from the edge, and assisted him in safely stepping onto the bridge’s track. He was then handed over to emergency medical services for further care. The incident highlights the importance of rapid response, teamwork, and professional skills in saving lives.

Bias read (Center): The article focuses on a local police operation and does not take a partisan stance. It emphasizes the professionalism and coordination of the officers involved without expressing ideological preference. While the event has political implications due to its connection to law enforcement and public安全
