A 19-year-old, first-year student of B.Sc. (Nursing) of a private nursing college in Sangivalasa allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from the fourth floor of the college building on Monday morning. The boy has been admitted to ICU in King George Hospital with serious injuries and is said to be in serious condition.
