Ranger, Warden Intervene In Attempted Suicide

Amistad National Recreation Area

National Park News

On the evening of January 26th, a park visitor came upon an 84-year-old man lying near the lake, bleeding profusely and refusing any assistance. Ranger Isaac Cohen and a Texas game warden found that the man had cut his wrists and was trying to crawl into the water. Cohen and the warden restrained him and pulled him from the water. Ranger Tyla Guss, an EMT, arrived and assisted with the man's care. He was transported by ambulance to the Val Verde Regional Medical Center, where he's currently recovering from his injuries. A suicide note was found on him in which he wrote that he was tired of all his aches and  pains.
