The man who jumped off the Hulton Bridge following a crash last week has been found dead.

The Allegheny County Medical Examiner reports 42-year-old Jeremy Gilroy of Verona was recovered from the Ohio River Wednesday.

Pittsburgh Police say they were called to the 1500 block of Reedsdale Street around 4 pm.

Gilroy crashed his car into a pole on the Hulton Bridge last Thursday.

Witnesses say he then jumped off the bridge.

It’s the second body pulled for a local river this week.

On Tuesday, 58-year-old Sean Dugan was found in the Allegheny River. He disappeared on October 30.
