Bridge Jumper Dies


A 22-year-old man from North Dakota is dead after jumping off the Sioux Narrows bridge over the weekend.

OPP divers recovered the body of Gerald Johasson Sunday afternoon.

Emergency personnel were called after reports of two people had jumped off the bridge early Sunday morning, but only one resurfaced.

Police have ruled the man's death as accidental.
