Teacher saves Saudi schoolgirl from 2nd-floor fall

A female school teacher appeared to have saved the life of a little student when she hurried forward and caught the girl just before she landed on the ground after falling from the second level, a newspaper reported on Tuesday.

The teacher was walking outside her class in the school in the southern province of Jazan when she noticed the girl was losing her balance because of illness and falling down, the Arabic language daily Al Watan said.

“The teacher rushed towards the girl and caught her at the last moment.
“The student landed on the ground, but the teacher’s hands cushioned the impact.

“The girl was taken to hospital with only a slight injury,” it said.
