A teen considering suicide called 911 and was comforted until emergency responders arrived to transport the young man to the hospital Saturday. Shortly after 5 p.m. officers, firefighters and EMTs responded to the St. George Town Square Park at 50 S. Main Street after the St. George Communications Center received a call from an 18-year-old man from inside of the restroom who said he cut his wrists. While responders were making their way to the park the emergency dispatcher remained on the line with the young man the entire time.
