Police rescue homeless senior citizen woman from street

Thane Police rescued a homeless senior citizen woman who was found wandering the streets in rain in a helpless condition Thursday night. The woman was comforted and admitted to an old age home, a police official said Friday.

The police helpline received a call Thursday night after the woman, around 60 years old, was found wandering in Bhim Nagar area, fully drenched in the rain and seemingly helpless. A police team was sent to the spot and she was brought to Vartak Nagar police station, said senior inspector Pradeep Giridhar.
