A woman was airlifted to hospital after police rescued her from a bridge near Warnham in the early hours of Sunday (March 30).

Emergency services arrived in Warnham Road near Rookwood Golf Course at around 2.30am.

Sussex Air Ambulance landed on the course.

The 20-year-old woman was reported missing from a Horsham home earlier that morning.

Police say she later called 999 and told officers she was on a bridge.

A spokesperson for Sussex Police said: “A 20-year-old woman was flown to hospital after being rescued from a bridge near Horsham in the early hours of Sunday morning.

“Her condition was described as ‘poorly’ on Sunday evening.”
