The Times Dispatch has a short article on a dramatic river event from this morning…
Excerpt:
A man jumped off the Lee Bridge early Friday but survived the plunge with the help of a jogger who entered the James River, reached the man and kept his head above water until rescuers arrived.
The runner was on the pedestrian bridge to Belle Isle when he heard the man after he hit the water shortly before 8 a.m., said Gene Lepley, a police spokesman.
