Around 5 o'clock, witnesses say a
white male approached the railing on
the southbound side of the Rivermont
Bridge, and jumped over it headfirst.

He fell an estimated 150 feet,
hitting a patch of trees before hitting
the ground.

36 year old Paul Passalacqua was
still alive when rescue crews found
him. He was taken to U-V-A after being
rushed to Lynchburg General Hospital
first.

The bridge has been the scene of
numerous suicides over the past few

decades, and many people have pushed
the city to install higher railings to
prevent people from jumping off.

held up the Hundley, Wilkins & Bowles

Police say Pagan walked into the

at gunpoint, then grabbed checks and
cash and took off.

He was caught a few blocks away

In today's consumer watch 7 report,
Perdue Farms is recalling nearly
231-thousand pounds of fully cooked
chicken breast strips because they may
have been under processed.

The chicken went to Subway
restaurants. It was shipped to
distribution centers in six states,
including Virginia.

The Agriculture Department says

there were no reports of illness from
the chicken strips.

A Perdue spokesman says they are
contacting all the operators who may
