The Washington State Patrol has idenitifed the University Place man who died Tuesday after jumping off the Tacoma Narrows Bridge.
Tom Champlin, 62, pulled his car over on the right shoulder headed eastbound, got out of his car and jumped off the bridge.
Rescuers recovered his body out of the water about a half a mile north of the bridge.
The incident slowed traffic from Gig Harbor for about 30 minutes as rescuers responded.
