Ahh, weekends in Corpus Christi. I guess this would classify as a "bottoming out" experience.
Woman Stops To Relieve Self, Falls Off JFK Causeway, Corpus Christi Police Say: Husband Flags Down Police To Help After 15-foot Fall
CORPUS CHRISTI — A 42-year-old woman was taken to the hospital Thursday after falling off the JFK Causeway during a bathroom break, Corpus Christi police said.
An officer driving east on the causeway about 1:18 a.m. saw a man frantically pacing next to a car parked on the westbound side of the road.
The 52-year-old man said his 42-year-old wife had fallen more than 15 feet off the side of the bridge.
The man told police his wife had been drinking and asked that he pull the car over so she could relieve herself.
The woman climbed over the railing and fell onto some rocks, landing in about four inches of water, police said.
Officers climbed down to assist the woman and found her unresponsive.
Emergency responders brought the woman back up onto the road using a backboard and a long extension ladder.
She was taken to Christus Spohn Hospital Memorial for injuries that were not life-threatening, police said.
