Fall River crews and Massachusetts State Police responded Sunday to an incident that is believed to be unfounded.

A call came into dispatch from a suicide hotline at approximately 5:45 p.m. for a possible bridge jumper on the Charles Braga Bridge on I-195 West.

The female reportedly stated she was jumping off the bridge and had harmed herself.

Fall River Police and Massachusetts State Police did not locate any evidence of a jumper on both the Braga Bridge and Veterans Memorial Bridge. The Harbormaster found no evidence of a jumper in the water.
