A state trooper was traveling south on I-71 when he spotted a man walking on the northbound side of the bridge. The trooper turned around and activated his emergency lights.
The man jumped off the east side of the bridge just as the trooper approached. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
The bridge, the site for numerous suicide attempts, is the tallest in Ohio and crosses the Little Miami River.
