Second Jumper On Hillard Bridge, 3rd Suicide In 8 Days

[Jim O'Bryan]

A sixty-five year old male jumped off the Hillard Bridge today around noon.

This would be the second person jumping from the bridge in 8 days.

Also a couple days ago a man jumped off of an apartment at the Winton Place, and was
killed when he landed on the roof, of the entrance.

PLEASE, if you know of anyone going through tough times, take some time, talk with them,
let them know it is only temporary, whatever they are going through.
