PC Mohammed Nadeem jumped into freezing, fast moving water
A hero cop who helped save a drowning man has been honoured by the Queen. PC Mohammed Nadeem selflessly jumped into the freezing River Irwell in Bury, and assisted the distressed man who had been caught up in fast moving water.
Baywatch star David Hasselhoff recorded a special video message for PC Nadeem when he received an award at the national Police Bravery Awards. Now PC Nadeem has received the Queen’s Commendation for Bravery, the last set of the awards which have been handed out in the name of the late Queen. A summary of PC Nadeem's heroic actions was released as news of his award was announced. It read: "On Saturday 17th February 2018, police received a call of a distressed male on a bridge over the River Irwell. The situation was particularly sensitive as the man, wanting to take his own life, was a veteran in a poor mental state. Several officers were deployed and on arrival the man had jumped into the water and was clearly in difficulty.
"The water was fast moving, deep and very cold. The man was swimming away from the officer in the direction of an incredibly dangerous weir, as he was intent on drowning.
