A 34-year-old woman has jumped off the Williamsburg Bridge, landing on the street below. According to the FDNY, a call came in around 2:34 this afternoon detailing that the woman had landed on Pitt Street, and suffered "multiple trauma" before being transported to Bellevue Hospital. We'll update as more information becomes available.
[UPDATE / 4:21 p.m.] The NYPD tells us that the 911 caller reporting the incident noted that the woman landed on a vehicle, but that officers at the scene couldn't confirm this. Jen Doll over at the Village Voice found these photos of the vehicle in question, posted by @quinner250 on Twitter.
@quinner250 writes “My CSI for the day: Delancey St & Pitt St - female jumper down from the Williamsburg bridge.”
We're attempting to contact Bellevue to get the woman's condition, and will update when more information is available.
