k' leah,

Upfront Apologies.

I find the story and its paragraph are aligned properly to look like a story.

For example, there is a sentence in which the agitated man did jump from the Bridge along with his son, this is probably last sentence or just before that, instead, it is in the center of the paragraph and the story continues.

Kindly review.

”Crash mats and other equipment were brought to the scene to minimise damage in case the stressed man, named Ping, couldn’t be calmed down and jumped from the 20 metre high bridge clutching his son.”
