Rescue efforts got underway immediately when Pittsburgh Police and emergency crews were called around 8:40 P.M. with a report of three males jumping from the Hot Metal Bridge.

River Rescue officers successfully pulled a struggling man onto their boat and began treating him. 25-year-old Austin Chris Bible was transported to the hospital in critical condition where he was later pronounced deceased.

The other two men were safely pulled to the river’s edge and found to be uninjured.

Police have not filed any charges pending the outcome of their investigation, but they determined the men were not trying to take their own lives..
