Attempted Suicide

NOT TO BE USED WITHIN 60 MILES OF NEW YORK CITY.

I guess that`s too prevent any copycat attempts. The events took place on December 13th, 1970. Typed out for those folks who can`t see too well.

When 30-minute pleas by would-be rescuers failed to convince Cylvester Nurnally, 21, of East Orange, N.J. to come back up, he plunged 150 feet from a warning light below to Williamsburg Bridge December 13th to icy waters of the East River below. A police launch was waiting to pluck him from the river, wet with torn pants buy apparently unhurt.

I wonder if he later attempted & succeeded.
