MID-HUDSON – The man who jumped from the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge around 11:30 this morning was pulled from the Hudson River by members of the Dutchess County Sheriff’s Office Marine Unit that was in the area. The man, who had left his dog tied up on the bridge walkway along with a note, was quickly retrieved by the deputies in the DCSO Enforcer II boat.
The deputies began CPR while rushing to the dock at the Newburgh Yacht Club, where the man was transferred to the care of Town of Newburgh EMS members, who transported the man to Montefiore St. Luke’s Cornwall Hospital.
