A Portland man was identified as the person who died this week when he jumped from the Glenn Jackson Bridge and landed on Southeast Evergreen Highway below.
James Thomas Atchley, 64, committed suicide Monday morning, according to the Clark County Medical Examiner’s Office.
Emergency personnel received a call about a man sitting on the guardrail on the bridge at 7:24 a.m. A witness reportedly stopped, but as he approached, Atchley jumped, according to Washington State Patrol.
