A woman who is believed to have possibly been chasing after her purse had to be pulled out of the East River after jumping in around 10 p.m. last night. The emotionally disturbed 23-year-old was stuck under a dock near East 30th Street after spending around twenty minutes in the water, the temperature of which hovers around 40 degrees this time of year. After struggling with police trying to pull her out, cops had to tie a rope around the woman in order to force her back onto land. She was brought to Bellevue and is in stable condition while being treated for hypothermia. She may not have made it that far had she not been spotted by a valet at the nearby Water Club restaurant. Dan Sweeney told the Post, "She didn't seem to be drunk or anything. But I really don't know what happened to her." Just earlier this week, we found a non-profit group imagining a swimmable East River, but even Kramer needed a little Hollywood magic in order to take his famous plunge in it a decade ago.
