Still alive after 3 suicide tries

An man survived a third attempt to end his life yesterday when he sustained only minor injuries after jumping from the second floor of a hospital in Mandaluyong City.

Police said Mongo Ocampo, 30, of 1033 MRR Trucking street, Barangay Barangka Itaas, is now being treated anew at the emergency room of the Unciano Medical Center.

Ocampo was first taken to the hospital at 6:45 a.m. yesterday after he tried to jump out of a speeding tricycle on Mayon street. The tricycle driver brought him to the hospital.

While being treated at the hospital, Ocampo, reportedly a drug addict, went wild and jumped out of the building’s second floor window. He landed on the ground feet first.

Police said Ocampo came from a town in Laguna, where he had attempted to commit suicide by slashing his wrist.

Doctors recommended that De Ocampo be subjected to a psychological examination. – Non Alquitran
