A man in his fifties took his own life early Thursday morning by jumping from the top of Abdoun Bridge in the capital city of Amman, according to eyewitnesses.

A security source informed Roya that the body was sent to the forensic medicine department for further investigation into the cause of death.

Since its establishment in 2002, Abdoun Bridge has sadly gained notoriety as a site where numerous individuals in distress have chosen to end their lives.

Over 200 cases of suicide attempts have been recorded at the bridge, while others have used this method to convey messages and make demands known.
