Dispatcher: 2313? Take a ride on this one–we got an attempted suicide. I can’t wait no longer on assigning someone to this. Take a ride to North Lake Shore Drive. This is on Lake Shore Drive. The complainant was driving southbound and between Fullerton and Belmont saw a man standing on a ledge of cement looking like he was going to jump. We’ll contact citywide if there’s anything to it, but take a ride by, see if you see anyone attempting to jump.
2313: Ten-four.
Dispatcher: And don’t pull up underneath ’em.
