Kitten trapped in Bayonne Bridge rescued

BAYONNE – A 5-week-old kitten trapped between two concrete barricades on the Bayonne Bridge was rescued by a Port Authority police officer on September 5, according to the NY Daily News.
Officer Ninzio DelPriore was patrolling the Bayonne Bridge when he was flagged down by a construction worker who heard distressed meows but could not see where the sounds were coming from.
The kitten, who was later named Bridgette, was given to the Perth Amboy Animal Shelter. The kitten is reportedly in good health and is expected to be put up for adoption in the next few weeks, once she reaches five pounds.
